Recurring 5K races near Pamplona
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Carrera de la Ruta del Vino de Navarra
The Carrera de la Ruta del Vino de Navarra is a 5,000-meter race held in Olite, a town in Navarra connected to the region’s wine route. Organized by Corredores Populares de Olite, the main adult race is suitable for newer runners and provides local club runners with a timed effort over a standard road-race distance.
The event is centered in Olite, with Plaza Teobaldos designated as the meeting point for a recent edition. It features children’s races, a runner’s bag service, timing, medical support, showers, nearby parking, and a finish-area announcer. The first edition was organized by Corredores Populares de Olite in conjunction with the Ayuntamiento de Olite-Erriberri, and registration has been managed through the RockTheSport platform.
Carrera Solidaria de Navarra
The Carrera Solidaria de Navarra is a charity run held in Pamplona, the capital of Navarra in northern Spain. Its listed race format is a 10 km run, a standard road race, not a multi-day trail event or a festival with many distances. The event schedule is not fixed in the listing, and runners can sign up for notifications via the event page.
The race is associated with the Universidad de Navarra, with its main campus in Pamplona. This provides a campus-city setting rather than a purely tourist route. The university is a large private institution with thousands of students and staff, and its red color is part of its identity. Available details are practical: the race has multiple organizing entities, an official web presence, and pending results/classifications when the next edition is listed.
Hendaye en rose
Hendaye en rose is a Pink October sports and solidarity program in Hendaye, featuring a 5 km walk and a 6 km run. It takes place during October, the breast-cancer awareness month. Hendaye Commerce and local shopkeepers organize the town’s campaign, allowing participation on foot rather than solely offering support from afar.
The program also includes conferences, longe cote, and Nordic walking, extending beyond a single start line. Hendaye Commerce and Cherie FM have supported the breast-cancer campaign for several years, involving local associations, residents, and businesses. Funds raised are donated to research, providing the event with a clear purpose beyond the run and walk.
Marche nordique du pignada - Anglet
The Marche nordique du Pignada is a timed Nordic walking event held in Anglet. It begins at 10 AM from the Orak Bat stadium. The event is organized by the Nordic walking section of Aviron Bayonnais Athlétisme. Participants can choose between a 6.5 km course or a forest route of approximately 11.5 to 12.5 km.
The routes traverse the Pignada forest. The shorter course consists of a single loop, while the longer timed course involves two loops within the woods. This is the event's fourth edition. It maintains a club atmosphere, with each participant receiving a souvenir gift. Following the walk, attendees are invited to a potluck, where participants contribute a dish or drink to share.
15 km Donostia - San Sebastián
The 15 km Donostia - San Sebastián is a road race held in late October in San Sebastián, a Basque coastal city also known as Donostia. The primary event is the 15K, with a 5K offered for those seeking a shorter distance. It accommodates a wide range of participants: individuals aiming for a fast time, runners preparing for longer races, novices, wheelchair athletes, and handbikers are all included. Over 5,000 people start annually, giving it the atmosphere of a city-wide event rather than a small local run.
The 15K course begins on Avenida de Madrid and concludes on Paseo de Anoeta. It is entirely within the city, is at sea level, and is closed to traffic, contributing to its reputation as a personal-best course for many. The route passes La Concha promenade, City Hall, the boulevard, Zurriola beach, wide central streets, and narrower old-town lanes. The race also fosters a strong community spirit: a skating club travels from Barañain each year, past champions discuss winning multiple txapelas, and finish-line stories often feature international visitors meeting the time limit and long-time friends still competing together after many years.
15 km Salto Donostia - San Sebastian - Saint-Sébastien
Runners begin at the stadium's base and conclude inside it for the 15 km Salto Donostia - San Sebastian, a road race held in October in San Sebastian, Spain. The primary race is 15 km at 10:00, preceded by a 5 km run at 09:30 and a distinct 15 km rollers and handbike competition. The 15 km event draws a substantial field, with the latest recorded results showing 3,892 participants for that distance.
The course is designed for speed, described by the organizer as an ultra-fast layout, yet it still offers participants a comprehensive view of Donostia. It proceeds north from the stadium, traces the Urumea river, crosses historic bridges, goes through the city center, and then runs alongside La Concha Bay before incorporating a short, elevated loop for added challenge. The ambiance is distinctly Basque and local, featuring music and hand claps along the route, and the stadium finish provides a defined endpoint, unlike a less distinct seafront conclusion.
Las Murallas de Pamplona
Las Murallas de Pamplona is a night running series in Pamplona, Navarre, Spain, held every year since 2013. Its name comes straight from the route: runners follow almost the whole line of the city’s old defensive walls, including the Citadel. The main race menu is simple: Fortín is 6 km, Ciudadela is 10 km, and Murallas is 15 km, though the longest option has used 18 km and 20 km routes in earlier editions. The event is organized by Club Kirol Bat Triatloi Taldea, and the city center closes to traffic while the races are on.
The course gives the race a very Pamplona-specific shape, passing places such as the Puerta del Socorro at the Citadel instead of using a generic road loop. It is a popular race with serious numbers: some editions have drawn more than 3,000 runners, and one came close to 4,000. A children’s race was added after the first few editions, with part of its entry money going to charities such as the Bone Marrow Donors Association of Navarre and UNHCR. The adult races award trophies to the top three finishers in each category, while the low entry fees and multiple distances make the night open to both casual runners and people chasing a place.
15 km Donostia - San Sebastián
The 15 km Donostia - San Sebastián is a road race held in San Sebastián, on Spain’s Basque coast, typically in late October. The primary event is La Clásica Salto 15K DSS, accompanied by a 5 km race on the same day for those seeking a shorter distance. This city-and-coast race welcomes handisport participants and is eligible for record-setting.
The 15 km route consists of one full circuit through San Sebastián, and the 5 km also follows a single-loop format. The prior edition attracted over 3,000 participants, indicating it is a busy city race rather than a small local run. Finishers ranks the 15 km as the most renowned race in its category, and the event is part of a broader Basque Country race circuit featuring several other San Sebastián events.
Carreira Nocturna Sada
Carrera de Navidad de Mendavia
The Carrera de Navidad de Mendavia is an evening Christmas run held in Mendavia, Navarra, Spain. The primary race covers 5 km on roads, with the absolute category officially measured at 5,300 meters, beginning at 18:00. This event is part of the Carrera de Navidad series, known as Carrera de Navidad de Denominaciones, and has associated regulations, a website, and results.
The event is suitable for runners seeking a brief winter race. In addition to the competitive absolute race, a non-competitive option is available, allowing participation for those who wish to enjoy the Christmas-race atmosphere without focusing on their time. The event's long history, indicated by its edition numbering, and the modest entry fee for the main race suggest a community-focused, accessible run prioritizing participation.
Course du Bout de l'An
Course du Bout de l'An is a late-December city race in Bayonne, Pyrénées-Atlantiques, southwest France. The main event is a 10 km road race, with a 5 km walk for those seeking the same end-of-year atmosphere at a gentler pace. It typically draws close to 3,000 participants, aiming to mark the year's end and the coming one by running through Bayonne.
The 10 km route offers a swift tour of the city, covering Grand Bayonne, Petit Bayonne, Lauga, Saint-Esprit, and Saint-Léon, with the Nive and Adour rivers visible. A distinctive Bayonne feature is the mid-race refreshment at the Trinquet bar. Post-finish, participants receive mulled wine, awards, and a donation check for the partner charity. Costumes are encouraged, and local food, including Bayonne ham and Basque cake, is part of the appeal.
Course du bout de l'an - Bayonne
The Course du Bout de l'An is a late-December road race held in Bayonne, located in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department of southwest France. Participants can select a 5 km or 10 km distance, and walkers also participate. It functions as an end-of-year city run, with large numbers of participants, a festive atmosphere, and many attendees joining with friends rather than focusing on competitive times.
The 10 km course circles Bayonne, crossing the city between the Nive and Adour rivers. A distinctive feature is the aid station located at the bar of the Trinquet, a well-known city landmark, reflecting the race's motto: “Lift your knees and lift your elbow!” Fields can number in the thousands, with some years selling out in advance and attracting significant numbers of walkers.

About 5K races in Pamplona
Pamplona Training Notes
Pamplona hosts 35 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Locals keep running simple in Pamplona, with easy laps through Taconera park, Media Luna park, Ciudadela, Vuelta del Castillo, Yamaguchi park, Parque del Mundo, and Arga park. The Vuelta del Castillo loop runs 54 km with 93 m gain when you want steady asphalt and a few bites. 50 km. Locals point race legs at Media maratón Ciudad de Pamplona, Carrera Solidaria de Navarra, Las Murallas de Pamplona, and Carrera Tres Burgos Tres Millas.
Local cyclists are stared at by the hills surrounding the city the whole trip, and they just ask to be climbed by bike. The Arga river gives the Classic Arga River Valley Loop its line, and that ride rolls 45 km with 420 m gain for base miles. Puerto de Velate Mountain Ascent gives you 68 km with 980 m gain, while Alto de Perdón Classic Climb keeps it sharper at 35 km with 580 m gain. CA Osasuna, CD Pamplona, SDC San Antonio, and MRA Xota sit in the local club mix. Half Triathlon Pamplona-Iruña works as the big anchor event.
Pamplona rewards spring and early autumn because the basin feels open, the parks stay useful, and the Pyrenean foothills stay green without making every ride a weather bet. Summer brings drier days and warmer highs than the northern coast, so locals move intervals early, keep Z2 honest, and save exposed climbs for steadier mornings. The Pamplona Cyclocross Gravel Bike trail near Ermitagaña suits dry conditions, and the rougher mountain-top stuff can turn too much for a road bike. Winter brings colder lows than the northern coast, so runners stay close to the Arga river parks and cyclists pick climbs with care.
