The emblematic mountain race will be held from May 7 to 9, 2026 with new rules and renewed expectations after the success of the last edition.
The organization of the Transvulcania adidas TERREX has announced the opening of registrations, through the website www.transvulcania.com, for its sixteenth edition, which will take place from May 7 to 9, 2026 on the island of La Palma. After the resounding success of the last edition, which sold out and broke five records, the event is shaping up to be one of the most important sporting events in the international trail running calendar.
Among the main novelties of this edition, it is worth mentioning the incorporation of a new regulation that contemplates a cold or heat kit, which can be activated in the days prior to the event depending on the weather conditions forecast for the race. This measure seeks to reinforce the safety of the runners and adapt the event to the possible climatic changes typical of the geography of the island.
The organization maintains the prices of the previous edition, including a reduced rate for those who register in the first period just activated. Thus, the general cost will be 90 € for the Ultramarathon, 65 € for the Marathon, 55 € for the Half Marathon, and 30 € for the Junior Half Marathon, Vertical Climb and the Joëlette modality. In addition, residents of La Palma will have special prices, 70 € for the Ultramarathon, 45 € for the Marathon, 35 € for the Half Marathon and 20 € for the Junior Half Marathon.
The president of the Cabildo de La Palma, Sergio Rodríguez, emphasizes the commitment of the current government team to this race, which is a hallmark of La Palma society and allows La Palma to continue to position itself in the international showcase, “a race that combines sport and nature and that is unique thanks to those who participate in it but also thanks to our people, who are the best possible audience.
For her part, the Councilor for Economic Promotion and Trade and CEO of Sodepal, Miriam Perestelo, stresses that the queen trail race of the island, not only positions the island for the sporting challenge it represents but also for the route that its participants can enjoy, all this combined with the other attractions of La Palma, such as gastronomy or the purity of its skies, among others.
The Transvulcania adidas TERREX is organized by the Cabildo Insular de La Palma through the public company SODEPAL, with the support of the Government of the Canary Islands, through the Ministry of Tourism and Promotur with its brand “Islas Canarias Latitud de Vida”.
