Who is it for? — Activity level

For beginners and experienced runners. The activity requires adequate physical condition and sufficient training, as you will run or walk through mountainous terrain with elevation changes. The hiking modalities are simpler, and the Cross Trail Taiga Costa Cálida is designed especially for those starting out in this world.

And for the little ones: the festival includes children's races, so the whole family can live the experience. (Registration of minors through the organization; see Contact.)
