Trail Cap de Creus – the most Mediterranean trail running course
The Trail Cap de Creus is more than just a race; it is an authentic journey through one of the most spectacular natural landscapes in Catalonia. Situated at the easternmost tip of the Iberian Peninsula, Cap de Creus is where the Pyrenees mountains meet the Mediterranean Sea, creating a unique mix of rugged cliffs, rocky trails, and endless sea views. For trail runners, this race combines technical difficulty with an unforgettable backdrop, making it one of the most iconic events on the Catalan coast. Climate: a decisive factor on race day Running in Cap de Creus means confronting the Mediterranean climate, which can be as challenging as the terrain itself. Spring (April–May): temperatures range between 12–22°C, making it one of the most comfortable periods. Expect

By the time runners arrive at the final weeks before race day, most of the hard work is already done. Long runs are logged, climbs have been tackled, and countless hours have been spent training. Yet there is still one final step that can make or break performance: tapering. In trail running, tapering means reducing your training load before an event to allow the body to fully recover and arrive fresh. It’s not about doing nothing—it’s
