Marató del Montseny 2026

Marató del Montseny is a mountain trail race held in Sant Esteve de Palautordera, near Barcelona in Catalonia. It takes place in early November within the Montseny massif. The event features a main 45 km single-loop race and a shorter 6.6 km trail option named La Sitja del Llop. The long race involves a 2752-metre climb, and the short race includes 1200 metres of elevation gain over a compact route. The marathon course connects three major Montseny peaks: Matagalls, Les Agudes, and Turó de l'Home. Participants can anticipate forest trails, mountain paths, steep ascents, and a challenging finish. Les Agudes and the final descent are noted as particularly demanding sections. This event attracts trail runners seeking a demanding Catalan race, distinct from a flat road marathon.
