Choose your adventure, rally your supporters and make it matter.
“I would love for all schools to be inclusive and for everyone to have a better understanding of autism, and the money we raise will go towards this.”

151 Scottish Autism superstars put on their kilts and walked across all four Kiltwalks in 2025, raising over £41,000.
Can we go even bigger next year? Why not set yourself a challenge your future self will thank you for!
With four locations and three distances to choose from, there’s a challenge for everyone. So whether you are a first-time Kiltwalker or long-distance regular, sign up to take on a Kiltwalk near you.
“I know first hand the challenges that come with navigating a world that often isn’t built for neurodivergent people. Support, understanding, and tailored resources make all the difference, and Scottish Autism provides exactly that.”
Lee, supporter who has completed five Kiltwalks for Scottish Autism
