About the race
La 31st Marxa del Garraf is a long resistance walk that links mountain and sea across the Garraf massif and the coastal village of El Garraf. The route covers 46 km with an accumulated elevation change of 2,720 m and a net ascent of +1,360 m. Organised by Unió Muntanyenca Eramprunyà, the event forms part of the 2026 Circuit Català de Caminades de Resistència and is non competitive: the result is the public recognition of completion rather than ranking by time. The route is waymarked with ribbons, vertical signs and flour arrows. Aid stations provide water and food; volunteers numbering about 125 staff control points and support participants. The first aid station is located at roughly 10 km from the start. There is also a shorter track recorded by the organisers.
Distances:
- 46 km main route with total accumulated ascent 2,720 m
- 23 km short track option
The route runs in a natural environment and crosses both mountain trails and coastal sections, reaching the village of El Garraf where a sea access point exists. A maximum time of 13 hours is set for completion. Participants should assess their own physical capacity before attempting the route. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
