Ultra Trail Calendar — Andalusia, April 2027
Andalusia offers spectacular trail running terrain, from the peaks of Sierra Nevada to the trails of Serranía de Ronda and the coast.
1 race scheduled
Climate in Andalusia: Andalusian summers are extreme inland, with temperatures exceeding 40 °C in low valleys. However, Sierra Nevada allows summer running above 2,000 meters with pleasant temperatures. Autumn and spring are the golden season: mild temperatures, long days and spectacular landscapes. Winter is viable on the coast and lower ranges, but snow covers Sierra Nevada from December to April.

Tips for running in Andalusia in april
Always carry a lightweight waterproof windbreaker in your pack: spring storms arrive without warning.
April is a transition month: you may need short sleeves in the valley and long sleeves at the summit in the same race.
Springs and streams usually carry water in April: even so, do not drink from natural sources without filtering.
