Trail Races in February in Spain 2026
February is the heart of winter in the trail calendar, but far from being an empty month, Spain offers races that take advantage of the season's unique conditions. The southern sierras and islands maintain pleasant running temperatures, while in the north and high-mountain areas the terrain may include snow and ice at higher elevations. It is a perfect month for preparation races ahead of spring: many runners use February for medium-distance events as training for their main March-May objectives. Winter landscapes — almond trees in bloom on the Mediterranean, snow on the peaks — make February a special month for running.
For cold and dark miles
Headlamp, thermal layer and a good watch: what matters when daylight runs short.

Tips
Check the weather forecast in the days before: February is unpredictable and changes fast in the mountains.
If the race has high altitudes, carry microspikes in case of ice patches in shaded areas.
Hydration: even in the cold you still lose fluid. Do not reduce water intake.
