Full Moon Trail 2026

Full Moon Trail guides runners along Tijarafe's mountain paths on La Palma, after dark and illuminated by a full moon. This annual night mountain race offers 25K, 14K, and 9K distances, alongside categories for children and hikers. The event is integrated into the K Series Canarias and Open Trail La Palma, and it holds Starlight Sports Activity accreditation. The course crosses Tijarafe’s trails and historic municipal paths, closely linking the race to the island’s rugged landscape and dark skies. Participants from La Palma and the wider Canary Islands attend, with the full moon serving as the race’s core tradition rather than merely a backdrop. The Starlight designation is significant as the event advocates for the preservation of the night sky against light pollution.
