Trail Intercasteller
Sat 28 Nov 2026 · Esparreguera, Barcelona
members-only — you must belong to a colla castellera (human-tower team) to enter. Effectively a closed inter-club championship, not a public race · Our read

Endurance load on ITRA's km-effort scale — not steepness or technical terrain.
How we measure
km-effort = distance + climb/100, ITRA's published scale: every 100 m of climb counts like ~1 km of distance. Six levels, Easy → Brutal, from the hardest distance of the event. The climb figure (m/km) shows how vertical the course is.Drive

Our take
The catch · Our read
not open to the general public — the entry gate is cultural, not a license. The long loop is honestly flagged as technical
Who it's for · Our read
castellers and their families; NOT open-registration runners (they can't enter)
Also nice · Our read
castellers racing each other on Montserrat's flanks; a rare crossover of Catalan human-tower culture and trail
In a word · Our read
a village trail's friendly-rivalry format, gated to human-tower clubs — think inter-colla derby, not open race
