Tastavins Trail 2027

The Tastavins Trail is a race weekend, not a single race. Peñarroya de Tastavins, a stone village in the Matarraña area of Teruel, near where Aragon meets Catalonia and Valencia, hosts seven races for up to 800 participants on 17–18 October 2026. The race is organised by the town council with Fartleck Sport, and all the routes are on the Aragonese mountaineering federation (FAM) calendar and certified by it.

The programme

Day	Races
Saturday 17 October	La Buitrera, 6K, 4K, 1.5K
Sunday 18 October	11K, 14K, 17K, 22K

The 22K has +1,357 m, climbing through the limestone landscape around the village, including the Peñas de Masmut rock walls and summits such as Tossal del Hereu and La Tossa. The 11K, 14K and 17K give you shorter steps up to the same terrain.

Carry your own supplies

The race puts a strong emphasis on self-sufficiency. The kit list in the most recent regulations required:

• a windproof jacket with hood and long sleeves
• a survival blanket (at least 1.20 × 2.10 m)
• at least 1 litre of water
• mobile phone, cap or buff, and a whistle
• your own cup, because there are no cups or bottles at aid stations

Aid stations on the 22K were close together, at about km 2, 7.4, 9, 14.2, 17.6 and 19.9. There were also time controls, and runners over the limit at a checkpoint were redirected onto a shorter route or withdrawn. Check the 2026 regulations for this year’s cut-off times.

Stay the weekend

With races on both days, the smart plan is to arrive Saturday, watch La Buitrera or run a short race, and take on the 22K on Sunday. The Matarraña’s stone villages, such as Valderrobres and Beceite, are a short drive away. Book early, because accommodation in the area is limited.
