Past formats have included 53 km, 62 km, and 84 km, with historical ultra results exceeding 100 km, indicating the main distance may vary by edition. The courses predominantly follow mountain paths, incorporating some tracks and road segments. The 62 km ultra features approximately 4,100 m of elevation gain and has a time limit of 18 hours and 30 minutes. Approximately 400 participants compete across all events. The race also functions as the Catalan championship for ultra-distance and team racing. Organized by the Centre Excursionista d’Olot, proceeds benefit the Albert Bosch Foundation, supporting initiatives against childhood diseases, such as childhood cancer.

The Trail Torres del Foc begins in Calella at Pati de l'Os and concludes along the seafront on Passeig Manuel Puigvert. This competitive trail running event takes place in November, offering four distances: 12K, 21K, 42K, and 60K. Participants can select a short mountain run or an ultra-distance challenge. The routes traverse the Parc del Montnegre i Corredor, connecting the coast with the forested hills inland. The courses follow paths and trails within the park, with elevation gains for each distance: approximately 396 meters for the 12K, 992 meters for the 21K, 1,692 meters for the 42K, and 2,449 meters for the 60K. The event's name originates from the fire watchtowers located along the route, elevated points that continue to aid in forest protection. The 21K holds UTMB Index 20K status and recently saw about 145 finishers. The range of distances accommodates newer trail runners, club athletes, and those seeking a demanding mountain race.
