Xtrail Series Run Òrrius

Xtrail Series Run Òrrius is a trail running race through the trails of the Serralada del Litoral Natural Park, a natural area between the Maresme and Vallès Oriental counties, just 30 km from Barcelona. The event is part of the Xtrail Series Run circuit, which organises races in different locations across Catalonia.

The course

The circuit starts from the Church of Òrrius and winds through a privileged natural environment. Runners cross iconic landscapes such as the Enchanted Forest (Bosc Encantat) and pass through natural and heritage landmarks:

  • Turó de Mataró - Elevated point with views over the Maresme coast
  • Pedra de les Orenetes and Pedra de l’Elefant - Unique rock formations
  • Dolmen de Céllecs - Ancient megalithic monument
  • Sant Bartomeu de Cabanyes Hermitage - Historic heritage in nature
  • Bassa de Ca l’Argent and Pedra del Rei - Hidden corners of the range

Race options

Xtrail Òrrius offers three distances designed for all levels. The Xtrem 21K (800m D+) is the flagship race, a demanding course that fully explores the coastal range. The Trail 15K (500m D+) is the intermediate option, with a perfect balance between effort and enjoyment. The Short 10K (300m D+) is ideal for trail beginners or those looking for a quick but intense experience.

A circuit with character

The Xtrail Series Run is more than a single race: it is a circuit that visits different villages and landscapes across Catalonia. The Òrrius edition stands out for its proximity to Barcelona and the quality of its trails, which combine Mediterranean forests, rock formations and megalithic heritage in a surprisingly wild setting so close to the big city.

How to get to Òrrius

Òrrius is in the Maresme county (Barcelona), about 30 km from the capital via the C-33 towards Mataró. The nearest airport is Barcelona-El Prat (BCN). You can take a commuter train to Mataró and then a taxi or rideshare. Driving is the most convenient option. Choose your trail shoes carefully for the technical trails of the coastal range.
