Glenalmond has won the Scottish Schools' Senior Boys Trophy more often than any other school.

The school campus and local terrain provide a superb training facility and participation in the Scottish Islands Peaks Race offers an additional incentive to endurance athletes.

The College competes in a programme of races in the Lent Term culminating in the Scottish Schools' Championships at Irvine in March. Information is provided to pupils about appropriate local races and links are maintained with Tayside Orienteering Club.
