Trail races in Galicia — March 2026
Galicia offers Atlantic trail running through green paths, coastal cliffs, and interior ranges. Rias Baixas, Serra dos Ancares, and Costa da Morte provide unique running scenery.
3 races scheduled
Climate in Galicia: Galicia's Atlantic climate is unpredictable: it can rain any day of the year, and a sunny morning can turn into dense fog in minutes. Summer is the most stable window, with mild temperatures and long days of light, though it never guarantees clear skies. Autumn and winter bring constant rain, endless mud, and wind pushing from the ocean. Spring is magical if you dodge the showers: impossible greens, wildflowers, and water everywhere. Waterproof gear always in the pack.

Tips for running in Galicia in march
Pollen allergies start in March: if you are sensitive, carry antihistamine and consider a buff to cover nose and mouth.
Days are longer but mornings still cool: a thin thermal base layer under your race shirt can make the difference.
Pine processionary caterpillars are active in March: avoid touching nests and keep distance from caterpillars on the trail.
