The Cross Villanueva del Trabuco is a December cross-country race held in Villanueva del Trabuco, a town in Malaga province. The primary event is a 6,000-meter race on a lap course within Los Villares peri-urban park, organized by the local sports department. It is open to male and female participants across the specified age groups, meaning the competition is not restricted to club members or select athletes. This marks the thirteenth year for the event.
The race attracts skilled runners from the province and athletes from significant Malaga clubs. Competitors also travel from neighboring provinces like Cadiz, Seville, and Granada. The Andalusian Athletics Federation officially records the results using its timing system. In addition to the main race, there are school categories with shorter races for pre-benjamin, benjamin, alevin, infantil, and cadete runners, covering distances from 500 to 3,000 meters. Awards are presented to the top three male and female finishers in each category.
