Courses

The Galatzó Trail 2024 starts and ends in the “Plaça de Sa Vinya” (Es Capdellà), in the town, and runs in its entirety through the mountain paths of the Serra de Tramuntana, concretely, in the LIC zones of Es Galatzó – S'Esclop, Puig de Na Bauçà and the Galatzó Public Estate.

The route is published on this website and in other media associated with the event, such as: the event’s social media or registration website.

The Organisation reserves the right to change, modify or suspend the published route in the event of exceptional circumstances (weather, security, recommendations from emergency services, etc.).

In case of changes, modifications or suspensions of routes, the Organisation will inform the participants by the means at its disposal, website, social media, emailing participants, etc.

The route is appropriately signposted throughout.

PASSAGE CONTROLS AND CUT-OFF TIMES

GALATZÓ TRAIL LEGEND (43 km): 8.30 am (Plaça de Sa Vinya, Es Capdellà)

The maximum time to complete the Galatzó trail is 9,5 hours (8.30 am to 6 pm).

In order to avoid expelling from the race people who have not reached any of the intermediate cut-off points of the race within the time allowed, we have created NON ELIMINATING CUT-OFF POINTS, which are penalisable.

There will be two non-eliminatory cut-off points, penalisable, for the LEGEND distance,

• 1st point – 12.45 p.m. at Pas de na Sabatera, before starting the ascent to the top of Galatzó (Km 22.4).
• 2nd point: 15.30 h. GR221 crossroads with Ses Planes (km 33):

People who have not passed either of these two cut-off points will not be classified ahead of those who have completed the whole route, so if their final time, adding the penalty/s, is less than that of the last participant who has completed the route, 1 minute will be added to the time of the last person classified.

Those who have not passed any of these cut-off points will be considered FINISHERS of the distance they have actually completed.

In order to be ranked, participants must complete the entire course and have passed through all the checkpoints established by the Organisation.

The Organisation, due to weather conditions, reserves the right to:

•       Extend the cut-off time
•      Reduce the route and distance of the race

These possible modifications will be notified on the website, briefings or normal communication channels.

GALATZÓ TRAIL HALF (22 kms): 10 am (Plaça de Sa Vinya, Es Capdellà) – there are no established cut-off points.
