Marxa Mar i Muntanya 2026

Marxa Mar i Muntanya is a popular run-or-walk event in Palamós, on Catalonia’s Costa Brava, organized by Associació Atlètica Palamós. It starts from the Zona Esportiva Josep Massot i Sais and is designed for a broad field: people can cover the route at running pace or treat it as a march. The event is long-running, with more than forty editions, and the course sits in the middle distance range, listed around 12 km in general information and 14.5 km with about 280 m of climbing for the current route. The name means sea and mountain, and the route earns it by moving between Palamós’ coastal edge, wooded paths, and inland tracks. The course includes La Fosca, the Castell area, forests, trails, and stretches near the shoreline, with recent routing also naming Celler Brugarol and Mas del Vent. Entry includes insurance, two aid stations, a shirt and gift, breakfast at the finish, and showers, which fits the event’s local, practical style more than an elite-race setup.
