This year, Mallorca’s international mountain marathon in Spain is set to take place for the fifth time on a rustic natural landscape at the foot of a mountain not far from the resort city of Palma.

This is no city run. On the Galatzó Trail run on March 13, participants will have the opportunity to master one of the two distances of around 43km or 23m of mountain tracks – including a fair amount of inclines.
