7ª Eco Maratón la Donaira
Registration opens in August at www.dorsalchip.es
A race to connect with the land
The trail winds between El Gastor and Montecorto, passing through ancient olive groves and centuries-old oak trees, the biodynamic garden, and the pastures where our Lusitano horses and livestock roam free.
The route climbs to Pico Malaver, at 1,122 metres above sea level, one of its most emblematic points. From its summit, the views open onto an extraordinary landscape reaching as far as the Sierra de Grazalema, accompanying participants as they run along the hilltop ridges.
Along the way, the wildlife of the Serranía de Ronda becomes part of the experience, in a setting capable of making even the fastest runners pause for a moment.
Categories and activities for the whole family
The La Donaira Eco Maratón is open both to experienced trail runners and to those who prefer to walk, take in the scenery, and enjoy the day at their own pace.
Trail 25 km
Trail 15 km
Hiking 10 km
Kids' race
In addition, throughout the day we'll have a kids' club and environmental workshops on offer, designed to introduce children in a fun, hands-on way to the care of nature, biodiversity, and the surrounding environment.
AN EVENT DESIGNED WITH SUSTAINABILITY AT ITS CORE
Spots are limited, and we keep it that way to protect the land we run through.
Plastic use is kept to a minimum, and every medal and trophy is made from recycled and natural materials.
10% of every registration fee goes directly to local environmental projects.
Aid stations are stocked with organic, seasonal produce from the farm.
We run not to conquer the land, but to honour it. To move through it with care, and arrive at the finish line a little more connected: to the earth, to each other, to ourselves.
The Ecomaratón La Donaira is open to everyone who shares these values, whether you are a seasoned trail runner or someone who simply wants to walk the route and take it all in. We hope to see you in November.
stay & run
trail run retreat
A special way to complete the experience. We have put together a dedicated package to complement the event: sports massage, tired legs ritual, and stretching yoga session — everything your body needs to prepare and recover.
The spa is part of that journey too. Before or after the race, the steam bath, wood-fired sauna, and cold plunge are there to prime your body and help it recover well. So is the food: fresh, seasonal, and grown just metres from where you ran, it is the kind of meal that restores from the inside out.
With only nine rooms, spaces fill quickly. We recommend booking well in advance.
And if you are staying with us that weekend, registration is on us.
