Start: <\/strong>Fuencaliente Lighthouse.
Finish: <\/strong>El Pilar Refuge.
Departure time: 7:30 AM.<\/p>\n

The Transvulcania Half Marathon is not as tough as the Ultramarathon, as it is only 24.80 km long.<\/p>\n

It starts at the Fuencaliente Lighthouse, just an hour and a half after the Ultramarathon. The Half Marathon follows the iconic Volcano Route to the Refugio de El Pilar Recreation Area, but this means running in the opposite direction to the route, so you have to add a climb through a \u2018Malpa\u00eds\u2019 of volcanic lava. <\/p>\n

The short version of Transvulcania has a cumulative elevation gain of 2,097 meters and a cumulative elevation loss of 689 meters over a distance of 24.80 kilometers.<\/p>\n

All this takes place at several iconic locations, such as the spot where the inhabitants of Fuencaliente and other parts of the island gather in the early hours of the morning to cheer on the runners as they pass by. Another important location is Las Deseadas, one of those places that runners fall in love with for its wonderful views. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
