Calvià launches the Galatzó Trail, a new trail running race
The Calvià trail running event will take place on 18th March at the Galatzó Estate
A race with a 100% mountain route
The event will have two distances, a mountain marathon and a half marathon
The first edition of the Galatzó Trail, a demanding mountain marathon that will be held entirely at the Galatzó Public Estate, will take place on 18th March
The Calvià Town Hall, through the Calvià Sports Institute and Fundación Calvià 2004, organises this sports event that has the following objectives:
To value one of the main assets of the natural heritage of the municipality of Calvià by means of the realisation of a first level sporting event.
Offer a proposal of local, national and international interest that serves to cause the influx of athletes to the municipality in the low season.
The route:
The participants will start and finish the races at Plaça de Sa Vinya in Es Capdellà, and they will have to overcome some circuits that run entirely through one of the most beautiful places in the Serra de Tramuntana, the Galatzó Estate.
Galatzó Legend Tour (+ -43 km): spectacular and hard course in which the participants will face a little over 42 kilometres crowning two very technical peaks, those of the mountains of s'Esclop (927 metres) and the mythical Puig des Galatzó (1,027 metres).
Galatzó Half Tour (+ -22 km): a route that also departs from Es Capdellà and circulates through some of the trails that connect the public estate. The participants will face levels higher than 600 m in a fun and 100% mountainous circuit.
The services:
The organisation intends that both participants and companions enjoy an exceptional event experience and therefore, ensure a catalogue of services including, amongst others:
children's activities, entertainment, medical services, refreshments, timing, cloakroom and showers, runner's kits, awards ceremony, etc.
Other activities:
The Galatzó Trail wants to be more than a mountain race and therefore the organisation works on the design of a programme that will include other activities parallel to the race that besides enriching the offer will serve to enhance the nature of the municipality and promote the good use of the mountain.
