Ultra Trail Races in Spain 2026

Ultra trails exceed 80 km and represent the ultimate trail running challenge. These are races that can last between 12 and 40 hours, cross entire mountain ranges and accumulate over 5,000 metres of positive elevation gain. Here physical preparation is only part of the equation: mental strength, the ability to manage sleep, nutrition over more than a day and resilience through low moments are equally decisive. Spain hosts some of the most prestigious ultra trails in Europe, with events spanning the Pyrenees coast to coast, circumnavigating mountain massifs and crossing national parks under the stars. Each ultra is a transformative experience that goes beyond sport. If you dream of crossing a finish line after an entire night running through the mountains, this is your category.
