Transgrancanaria is one of the longest-running ultra-trail events on the international calendar. Celebrated as the season opener, it includes races across Gran Canaria, from the VK to the 126-kilometre Classic Race, which challenges runners to traverse the island from north to south. With diverse sections of dense forest and exposed volcanic rock, and over 6,800 metres of climbing, it’s the ultimate test of end-to-end endurance.
