Trail 2 Heaven 2026

Recommended gear

high mountain terrain50.4km · 2,950m D+Advanced12°C – 22°C

Mandatory gear varies by distance: the 50K, which crosses into France, requires the most complete kit.

Trail shoes, hydration vests, trekking poles, waterproof jackets and the rest of the gear you need. Every recommendation is tailored to the race's specific terrain: high-altitude scree in Sierra Nevada calls for very different shoes than a forest trail in the Basque Country.

Based on historical data from the last 10 years

🌧️37% chance of rain — a waterproof jacket is a must.
