The Highlands Await. Ride. Chill. Race. Trick. Float The Highlands is a multi-day Onewheel and personal electric vehicle (PEV) event in the Scottish Highlands, running from 30 June to 5 July 2026. This app is the official event guide, helping riders and spectators plan their trip with schedules, maps, and key event information for both the tour and race weekend. Tour (Tue 30 June to Thu 2 July) Across three days, riders explore the Highlands on Onewheel and PEV. The tour includes a long-distance day from Oban to Glencoe (approximately 41 miles), scenic routes, and stops at local points of interest beyond the race venue. Capacity for the tour is limited to maintain a small-group experience. Race Weekend (Fri 3 July to Sun 5 July) Racing takes place at Glencoe Mountain Resort, with multi-stage enduro downhill courses starting around 2,500 ft and descending roughly 1,350 ft across four stages. Stages 1 to 3 are open to competent trail riders, while Stage 4 is intended for advanced and pro-level riders. Additional activities include a team endurance relay, an uphill challenge, freestyle riding and clinics, board demos, and social rides for attendees. Use the Float The Highlands app to stay informed about event times, locations, course details, and updates throughout the week.
