A unique ultra running high-altitude race in Europe: cross the island of Tenerife from the south to the north coast, the hard way.
One of the toughest mountain races in Europe and also one of the most varied in landscape and ecosystems. Start at sea level at Los Cristianos, climb volcanic slopes to almost the top of the highest mountain in Spain (Mt. Teide) and a UNESCO natural park site and then all the way back down to sea level to finish at Puerto de la Cruz.
With its highest point above 3500m, the accumulated elevation is 12819m (6411 ascent and 6408 descent).
Chose ultra or trail. The shorter distances available include marathon or half-marathon. Athletes with reduced mobility are also welcome to take part in a 4km hand bike event.
Mandatory requirements for inscription are at least one 70k completed mountain event in the past three years. This race awards UTMB points.
The ultra race has 12 checkpoints and a 24h cut off.
