Next May 2026, the Costa Brava will once again be filled with energy with the Run Festival Tossa de Mar, one of the most attractive sporting events for running enthusiasts. An event that combines sport, landscape and emotion in a unique setting: Tossa de Mar.
Running here is not just a race, it is an experience. Few places offer the chance to move forward between medieval walls, coastal paths and panoramic views of the Mediterranean.
A route that makes the difference
The Run Festival stands out for its spectacular route, combining urban sections with natural trails. From the very heart of Tossa de Mar, participants head into routes that alternate asphalt, trails and coastal paths.
One of the most special moments is passing through the iconic Vila Vella, the walled old town, where history blends with sport. From there, the route opens up to nature, with sections along cliffs offering constant sea views.
The contrast between the blue of the Mediterranean, the green of the pine forests and the coastline silhouette turns every kilometre into a visual experience that is hard to beat.
For all levels
The event usually offers different categories adapted to various levels: from more accessible distances for amateur runners to more demanding routes for those looking to push themselves.
This makes it an ideal option both for those who want to start running in natural environments and for experienced runners looking for new challenges.
Much more than running
The Run Festival Tossa de Mar is not just a race, it is a complete weekend plan. During the event, the atmosphere in the town is vibrant, with participants, companions and visitors filling the streets with energy.
It is also the perfect excuse to discover everything Tossa de Mar has to offer: coastal walks, hidden coves, local gastronomy and historic spots.
A perfect plan for an active getaway
Taking part in or attending the Run Festival is a different way to enjoy the Costa Brava in spring, when the weather is ideal for outdoor activities and the surroundings are at their best.
And if you want to complete the experience, staying at GHT Hotels is a perfect option to recharge your energy after the race.
