Low Elevation Gain Trail Races in Spain 2026 (Page 2)

Low elevation gain races, up to 800 metres of positive gain, offer flowing courses where you can maintain a steady running pace. They are the ideal option for road runners wanting to discover trail without facing endless climbs. Having less elevation gain does not make them less demanding: technical terrain, roots, rocks and constant pace changes present a different challenge from the road. Spain has plenty of low-gain races along the coast, plateaus and river valleys, where trails wind through varied landscapes without steep gradients. They are also perfect for training speed on natural terrain and competing at high paces.

For cold and dark miles

Headlamp, thermal layer and a good watch: what matters when daylight runs short.
