UTMB World Series

The Tenerife Bluetrail by UTMB is one of the most varied mountain races, thanks to the diverse landscapes it runs and its technical demands. After 13 editions, it has been crowned one of Europe's best mountain races and has become iconic for many athletes. Few other events give runners the chance to start from the coast, run between rock formations and volcanic peaks, climb among the jagged rocks of lava flows, take a break while contemplating the island in its entirety from the 3,555-metre summit of Teide and then descend steeply through pine and laurel forests to winding tracks by the sea on the north coast of the island. During the race, you’ll be able to observe the 'sea of clouds,' an impressive natural phenomenon created by the trade winds, which from the summit, looks like a calm sea formed by fluffy clouds. But the Tenerife race is not just designed for titans. As well as the 110k, 73k, 47k (together with the 47k Relay version), and the 24k, which make up the UTMB World Series, all types of amateur and professional athletes of different ages and physical conditions can also take part. There are also two exclusive categories for people with some functional diversity, who can also enjoy the experience of taking part in a unique sporting event. The Tenerife Bluetrail is called ‘magical’ because of all these reasons.

The 73 km route boasts an elevation gain of 3000 mplus and forms a circular track that begins and ends in Radda in Chianti. The initial 40 km within Chianti Senese presents a relatively difficulty path through vineyards. This segment offers swift and runnable terrain. The ascent towards San Michele Mountain commences, peaking at the 60 km mark. This phase represents the most significant elevation gain on the course. The descent follows, leading to Volpaia, and subsequently to the breathtaking valley just prior to reaching Radda in Chianti.
