MARATÓ DELS DEMENTS

About this event

The Marató dels Dements takes runners into the rugged mountains above Artana, a small town in Spain's Valencian Community. This November event offers two demanding routes through the Sierra de Espadán, with the marathon distance climbing nearly 3,800 meters and the shorter 22.5km route still packing in over 2,000 meters of elevation. The terrain is technical and challenging, weaving through Mediterranean forests and rocky ridges. November timing means cooler temperatures for tackling these sustained climbs, though runners should come prepared for the physical and mental demands the event's name playfully hints at. Best suited for trail runners with solid mountain experience.
