BTT Castillo de Rueda 2026

BTT Castillo de Rueda is a mountain bike and gravel race held in Rueda de Jalón, Zaragoza, Spain. Participants begin and end at Plaza San Antón. The longer route covers 60 km with 800 m of elevation gain, commencing in the morning. The course crosses the dry steppe region surrounding Rueda de Jalón, featuring open, arid terrain and scrubby secano landscapes instead of forest paths or alpine ascents. This marks the race's fifteenth year. Its character is defined by the exposed inland environment: consistent effort, minimal shade, and a route where the light, dust, and dry hills are integral to the event.
