Ruta de los Molinos

Ruta de los Molinos San Mateo is a trail race in San Mateo, Gran Canaria, typically held in early September. It offers participants three distance options: a 7K course of approximately 6.9 km with 380 m of elevation gain, a 13K course of approximately 12.5 km with 685 m of elevation gain, and a 27K course of approximately 25.9 km with 1,455 m of elevation gain. The short race is designed for accessibility and speed. The middle distance is for runners seeking a challenging mountain course without the commitment of the longest route. The 27K route ascends to Pico de las Nieves, one of Gran Canaria’s highest peaks. Over a thousand runners participate, and the event is closely connected to San Mateo's local trail-running tradition.
