The course mixes volcanic mountain, coastal trails and Atlantic scenery: stretches of black sand, climbs with sea views and obstacles by the harbour. The start is in Puerto de la Cruz, in the north of the island.

It is the last race of the year in Spain: thousands of Spartans pick it to close their season, and the climate of the “island of eternal spring” makes it the most pleasant November Spartan on the calendar.

Racing in Puerto de la Cruz is a trip, not just a race

The race lasts from one to several hours; the trip, two to three days: a flight, a transfer from the airport, a night near the start and the journey home without driving on tired legs.

Our packs take care of every one of those pieces, so your only worry is the next obstacle.
