The Carrera Urbana Feria de Nerja begins and ends on the Balcón de Europa promenade, the cliff-top walkway in Nerja’s center. This urban road race is organized by Club Nerja Atletismo and takes place during the town’s fair, coinciding with the patron saint festivities for San Miguel Arcángel.
The race is in its sixty-eighth edition, establishing it as a fixture in Nerja’s local sports calendar. The Andalusian Athletics Federation sanctions the event. The program also features a children’s race and a sports walk open to the public, broadening the day beyond just an adult running competition.
