Trail Santiago Pontones – the wildest ultra in southern Spain
The Trail Santiago Pontones 2025 is not just another event on the Spanish calendar; it is a true journey into the wilderness. Every October, this ultra trail takes place in the rugged mountains of Andalusia, inside the Parque Natural de las Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas. What makes it unique is not only the technical terrain but also the feeling of isolation that accompanies every step.
