Asics
Asics Gel-Trabuco 14 GTX
A best-selling beginner trail shoe: GEL cushioning, good stability and a waterproof GORE-TEX membrane. Versatile and reliable for training on mixed terrain in any weather.
Berghaus
Berghaus Paclite 2.0 GTX
Waterproof jacket with a Gore-Tex Paclite membrane (around 330 g). Fully waterproof with taped seams, fixed adjustable hood, storm flap behind the zip and cuff adjustment. Packs down small in a vest. Heavier than a pure running hardshell, but it meets the waterproof-breathable membrane requirement in race rules and is the affordable route into Gore-Tex.
Brooks
Brooks Cascadia 20 GTX
The Cascadia 20 with a GORE-TEX membrane: stability and protection for rocky mountain terrain, keeping the foot dry on cold, rainy days.
Gore Wear
Gore Wear C5 GORE-TEX Glove
Glove with a fully waterproof, windproof GORE-TEX membrane and light insulation. The pick for running in snow, sleet or heavy rain while keeping your hand dry.
Gore Wear
Gore Wear M GORE-TEX Thermo Glove
Warmer variant of the Gore Wear C5 GORE-TEX: the same fully waterproof, windproof membrane, with extra thermal lining for intense cold on top of snow or rain. The pick when the problem isn't just water, but water AND hard cold at once.
Gore Wear
Gore Wear R7 GTX Shakedry
Ultralight Gore-Tex Shakedry waterproof jacket (110 g). Full waterproofing without an inner membrane, highly breathable. The benchmark for mountain runners.
Nike
Nike Pegasus Trail 5 GORE-TEX
The best-selling gateway trail shoe: comfortable, cushioned and versatile for moving from road to trail. Waterproof GORE-TEX version, perfect for beginners and easy runs on mixed terrain.
Salomon
Salomon Bonatti Pro Waterproof Glove
Lightweight waterproof glove built for running, not just standing still in the snow: a waterproof membrane with more dexterity and less bulk than a thick membrane glove, for sustained rain without giving up handling gels or poles.
Salomon
Salomon Bonatti WP
Ultralight waterproof windproof jacket (135 g). Taped seams, adjustable hood and back ventilation. Packs into its own pocket.
Salomon
Salomon Speedcross 6 GTX
The Speedcross 6 with a GORE-TEX membrane: the same aggressive 5 mm lugs for mud and soft ground, now waterproof for winter, rain and snow.
Sealskinz
Sealskinz Waterproof Lightweight Glove
Lightweight waterproof glove from a brand that specializes in outdoor sport waterproofing. A solid middle ground between a thin windproof glove and a thick membrane glove: genuinely waterproof without the bulk or price of the Gore C5.
Shokz
Shokz OpenRun
Open-ear bone conduction headphones with IP67 rating: they take rain, mud and a rinse under the tap. Up to 8 h of battery and quick charge (10 min for 1.5 h). The most rugged pick of the range for training in bad weather.
TRIWONDER
TRIWONDER Waterproof Trail Gaiters
Waterproof, breathable low gaiters for trail running, hiking and mountain use. Under-shoe strap and adjustable elastic band. A budget-friendly alternative to premium technical brand gaiters.
Sun protection essential (13h sunshine, up to 26°C)

Ultra Trail Torla-Ordesa: Trail Running in the Heart of Ordesa
Ultra Trail Torla-Ordesa (UTTO) is one of the must-do trail running events in Aragon. Starting and finishing at Plaza Aragón in Torla-Ordesa (1,033 m), its courses wind through the surroundings of Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Four distances — from a vertical kilometer to a 50K ultra — allow runners of all levels to enjoy the most spectacular landscapes in the Pyrenees: limestone canyons, waterfalls, beech forests, and alpine meadows with views of the Sierra de Tendeñera and Bujaruelo Valley.
Ultra de Tendeñera 50K: The Main Event
The Ultra de Tendeñera 50K is the flagship distance of UTTO, with 4,100 meters of elevation gain on a circular route around the Sierra de Tendeñera. The terrain combines technical mountain trails, forest tracks, and high mountain sections with possible snowfields.
Use our time estimator to predict your finish time for the 50K based on the tough elevation profile. Key features of the 50K:
- Semi-self-sufficient format with 6 aid stations plus finish
- 250 limited spots
- 18-hour cutoff time
- Start from Plaza Aragón in Torla-Ordesa
Vuelta al Cebollar 25K and Os Foratos de Lomenas 13K
The Vuelta al Cebollar 25K offers 1,800 m D+ on a demanding route with a 7-hour cutoff and 250 spots. A distance that combines technical sections with high mountain Pyrenean landscapes.
Os Foratos de Lomenas 13K runs through the Ara River valley with 600 m D+ and a spectacular passage through La Escala, equipped with safety cables, before summiting Peña Piñera. With a 3-hour cutoff and 300 spots, it’s the perfect distance for getting started in mountain trail running.
KV Arañonera: The Vertical Kilometer
The KV Arañonera kicks off the weekend on Friday from Bujaruelo Valley: 2.9 km and 600 m D+ in vertical kilometer format. Only 80 spots for this fast and intense climb up to Arañonera.
Torla-Ordesa: Gateway to the National Park
Torla-Ordesa is the gateway to Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park, one of Spain’s most iconic natural spaces. The town preserves its traditional Pyrenean architecture and offers the perfect setting to combine racing with hiking days through the Ordesa Valley, Cola de Caballo, or Añisclo Canyon.
UTTO is committed to sport and nature in a privileged setting, contributing to the development of the Broto Valley and the Sobrarbe region.
