Trailcomador 2026

Trailcomador is a mountain trail running weekend in Porté-Puymorens, located in the Pyrénées-Orientales. The event includes the Trail Coma d'Or, an 18-kilometer option, and Bar'Bar', a very short uphill race that focuses entirely on the local slope. Bar'Bar' covers just 1.55 kilometers but gains 425 meters in elevation, making it more of a vertical challenge than a typical trail run. The Bar'Bar' course begins at the Bar du Castel Isard and ends at the Bar de La Tramontane. The objective is to connect the two bars as quickly as possible. The gradient is steep enough that selecting the best line is crucial; runners must find the most efficient route up the slope, not just follow a set path. The fastest recorded times are approximately 16 minutes for men and just over 19 minutes for women, indicating the intensity of such a brief race. The larger Trailcomador event appeals to runners seeking mountain air, elevation gain, and Pyrénées scenery, rather than a course suited for achieving a flat personal best.
