Volta al Terme de Gilet

Volta al Terme de Gilet is a trail race in Gilet, offering two distances on the same day: a 21K trail and an 11K trail. The race takes place in October and this year marks its fourteenth edition. The available facts suggest a local mountain-running event rather than a large city road race. Runners from Gilet receive a small entry discount: 3 euros off the 21K and 2 euros off the 11K. To obtain this discount, the code must be requested by email from the organizer.

Medio Maratón Valencia Trinidad Alfonso Zurich

Semi-Marathon de Valence

The Valencia Half Marathon, or Medio Maratón Valencia, is a late-October road half marathon held in Valencia, Spain. Its very flat course is designed for fast running. Nearly 22,000 athletes from around the world participate annually. The event is part of the SuperHalfs series, which includes Lisbon, Prague, Copenhagen, Berlin, and Cardiff. Valencia concludes the SuperHalfs calendar. The race has hosted the women’s half marathon world record, set by Letesenbet Gidey at 1:02:52. Alessia Zarbo also set a French record of 1:08:20 on this course. The course connects the historic center with the maritime district, beginning at the foot of the Torre Miramar. Runners go by city landmarks such as the Museum of Fine Arts, Turia Stadium, Torres de Quart, Torres de Serranos, and the Palace of the Marquis of Dos Aguas. The Royal Spanish Athletics Federation rates it as Spain’s best half marathon. Its certified course, runner care, mild late-October weather, and the strong international fields explain its popularity among those seeking personal bests.

Trail de Buñol

The Trail de Buñol is a November mountain-running event held in Buñol, Valencia. It features a challenging 21 km trail with 1,000 m of elevation gain. Participants can also opt for a shorter 12 km trail that includes 436 m of elevation gain. Additionally, a 9 km walking route is offered for those who wish to enjoy the terrain without competing. The race is organized by C.A. Correores Buñol and is now in its tenth year. The event attracts significant local participation, with the most recent edition seeing 389 runners in the Sprint Trail, 201 in the 21 km race, and 110 in the walk, marking a new entry record. Support for the race comes from the Buñol town council, its Youth and Environment departments, the Diputación de Valencia, and local sponsors. Notably, the walking route can reach capacity before the running distances fill up.

Semi-Marathon de Gandie

The Semi-Marathon de Gandie is a road race in Gandie, Spain, offering a 10 km race and a half marathon. It is suitable for runners who already compete regularly, and the shorter option provides an entry point for committed beginners. The route follows the coast and crosses natural areas with lakes and ponds. The course also incorporates less common parts of the region, allowing runners to see more than a typical town circuit while competing on roads around Gandie.

30K 21K y 10K Ciutat de Sagunt

Ciutat de Sagunt offers runners three race options on the same November morning: 30K, 21K, and 10K. All three begin at Poliesportiu Internucleos, making the event suitable for marathon training, half-marathon fitness, or a shorter road race on the same day. The 30K has a four-hour time limit, with the finish closing at 12:30; participants on the course after this time must continue under normal traffic rules and at their own risk. The race is promoted by Sagunto City Council and organized by Cronometraje y Organización de Eventos Deportivos SL. Its primary purpose is to provide Valencia Marathon runners with a long tune-up, while also offering a first step into longer distances for newer participants. The 10K is open to ages 16 and up, while the 21K and 30K require runners to be at least 18. Bib and runner-bag pickup is at Polideportivo Internúcleos, with organizers recommending collection the day before to avoid congestion.

Dos Aguas Trail

The Dos Aguas Trail is a new mountain race in Dos Aguas, held in October with two distance options: 11k and 21k. Its first edition has already drawn over 300 registered runners, with entries managed via Cronorunner. Both routes ascend Pico del Ave, the race's main feature and a summit reaching nearly 1,000 meters. The 11k and 21k courses are available on Wikiloc, allowing runners to preview the terrain before race day and select between a shorter trail run or a longer effort on the same mountain.

Cursa de Muntanya Tombatossals

Cursa de Muntanya Tombatossals is a mountain running event in Castelló, with the next edition's date yet to be confirmed. The program lists two trail options: a 21 km race and an 11 km race. The available listing provides distances rather than a detailed route map, suggesting a local trail event featuring a longer mountain race and a shorter option. The 11 km race is designated as non-competitive, and event classifications are still pending. Runners may use the event page to request information, visit the official website, or sign up for date-confirmation notices.

Mondúver Trail Xeresa

Trail Algar de Palancia

The Trail Algar de Palancia is a December trail running event in Algar de Palancia, Valencia province, Spain. It features a mountain race of approximately 20 to 21 km and a shorter Sprint Trail of about 10 to 11 km. Both races begin and conclude at the municipal swimming pool facilities. The longer race has a 4.5-hour time limit, with a cutoff at 11 km after 2 hours 15 minutes. The Sprint Trail allows 3 hours, and its pace permits completion by hiking. The routes primarily follow mountain paths and tracks surrounding Algar de Palancia, marking it as a genuine local trail event. Both distances are timed competitions with classifications and trophies awarded by category. The shorter option provides a practical entry point for walkers and novice trail runners. Bibs and timing chips are typically distributed the afternoon before and on race morning. The event has occurred at least five times, with the Sprint Trail introduced later as a distinct, shorter race.

About Half Marathon races in Valencia

Valencia Training Notes

Valencia hosts 13 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run the Turia Gardens when they want steady Z2 without fuss. Turia Gardens gives the city a 9 km green line, so intervals and base miles both fit. Jardín del Túria Park has 9 km of running path. The Paseo Marítimo Seafront Promenade has 4 km of running path. Valencia Runner Club meets twice a month on Saturdays at 10:00 AM for a social run. CA Cárnicas Serrano and Sociedad Deportiva Correcaminos sit close to the race scene. Valencia Marathon Trinidad Alfonso Zurich and Valencia Trinidad Alfonso Zurich Half Marathon are the anchor events.

Locals ride the flat city first, then go inland when they want work. The city is completely flat and has about 200 kilometres of cycle paths, plus over 160 km of bike lanes. Via Xurra starts at the Torre Miramar roundabout in Benimaclet and runs 15 kilometers through olive and orange groves. The route to El Saler and l'Albufera Nature Park makes a 48 kilometre round trip for steady base miles. The quiet roads through orange groves and along the Turia river give the legs a rest. Sierra Calderona brings the climbs and off-road trails near the city. Triatló València - Platja de Malva-rosa works as the anchor event.

Spring owns Valencia when March to May keeps temperatures between 15 and 25 degrees. Autumn stays strong when September to October gives cooler days, golden light, and temperatures around 20-28°C. Summer brings 25°C to 35°C, so locals start early, keep beach rides easy, and save hard intervals for the smarter hours. Malvarrosa beach and Albufera feel right when long days carry the Z2 work. Winter changes less than you expect because Valencia sits in that mild 10-18°C range. Runners keep using Turia Gardens, and riders still roll the City of Arts and Sciences area or the coastline comfortably.
