About this event
The Marató dels Dements takes runners into the rugged mountains of the Sierra de Espadán above Artana in Spain's Valencian Community. This November event offers two demanding routes through Mediterranean forests and rocky ridges — the 42.5-kilometre marathon climbs nearly 3,800 metres, while the shorter 22.5-kilometre option still packs in over 2,000 metres of elevation gain. The technical terrain and sustained climbing make this one for experienced mountain runners, though November's cooler temperatures help take the edge off the physical demands. The name hints at the mental challenge ahead, but runners who've trained for serious vertical will find a rewarding test in these forested peaks.
