Across three winter days in late January, ULTRAMEDITERRÀNIA TERRES DE TRAIL 2026 turns the hills around Alcoi into a playground for trail runners of every level. The programme spans everything from short, explosive efforts like the VRT 4K and CXM 16K, through mid-distance adventures such as the EXP 25K and MAX 55K, to serious challenges including the STAGE 84K, ONE 90K and the flagship PRO 162K ultra. Courses link forest tracks, rocky singletrack, steep climbs and panoramic ridgelines, showcasing the interior of Alicante far from the usual beach image of the Costa Blanca. Runners can choose a single race or, in some formats, tackle multiple stages to build their own adventure across the weekend. With proper mountain terrain, technical sections and big elevation gain, this event is designed for those who want Mediterranean sun and serious trail credentials in the same race.
