Trail Zoquetes 2027

Trail Zoquetes brings mountain runners to Alcorisa, a town in Teruel in Aragón, Spain, on the second weekend of January. Club Alcorisa Fondistas organizes the race weekend, which opens the mountain-running season in Teruel and draws around a thousand entrants across its different events. The program ranges from short, non-competitive outings to longer trail races, with options around 4 km, 11 km, 19 km, 33 km, and 36 km. The event’s identity is unusually low-key for a race that attracts elite runners: there is no prize money, and invited front-runners do not get a fixed appearance fee. Its pull comes from the club’s close attention to runners before race day, summed up by the organizer’s line: “We win their hearts before they arrive.” That approach, plus the effort required to travel into inland Teruel in winter, makes the big turnout stand out more than the numbers alone.
