Mallorca by UTMB® 2026 is a trail race held from Fri, Oct 30, 2026 to Sun, Nov 1, 2026 in Sóller, Spain; the start is at 22:00.
Registration is open; the deadline is Tue, Oct 20, 2026. Dates, registration windows and fees on this page are refreshed every morning by scanning federation, timing and organiser sites; registration always happens on the official race site.
Someone running 30 km a week needs 25 weeks, about 6 months, to prepare for the 138K course of Mallorca by UTMB® 2026; that start day was Fri, May 8, 2026, so the window has passed with 2 weeks left to the race.
Mallorca is the essence of the Mediterranean. It is an island with thousands of corners to discover and enjoy. Mallorca is sea, land and air. Nature in its purest form. Mallorca by UTMB® probably one of the most varied mountain races in the world. Four distances in the 100M, 100K, 50K and 20K categories that will take place in the Serra de Tramuntana Natural Site, a Unesco World Heritage Site. An exceptional adventure in a unique landscape.
There are 4 courses: 138K (5350 m D+); 104K (3740 m D+); 56K (2450 m D+); 26K (1000 m D+).

What the weather is usually like here
•Over the last 5 years this week typically ran 18°C to 23°C here, with a high of 29°C and a low of 14°C.
•29% of those days saw rain. A real forecast lands about two weeks out and will appear here then.
•Typical daily maximum wind was 22 km/h (a moderate wind), with 51 km/h the highest value in the sample.
•Sunrise 08:16, sunset 18:50.
The race is more than two weeks out, so these are averages of recent years for the same week, not a forecast. A real forecast appears here closer to the day.

The first 5 km climb 304 m and then drop 71 m. Do not attack the opening climb in the crowd, and do not brake your way down the drop behind it.
The steepest wall stands between km 15 and km 22: net 490 m over 7 km at 7% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 27%, 619 m of climbing in total with 129 m given back. Heaviest kilometres: km 22 136 m, km 20 117 m, km 19 84 m, km 18 83 m. This is hiking terrain, not running terrain. Walk it with intent and keep your heart rate off the ceiling.
The longest drag runs from km 35 to km 43: 498 m over 8 km at 6% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 18%. Kilometre by kilometre: km 38 54 m, km 39 114 m, km 40 166 m, km 41 109 m, km 42 15 m, km 43 40 m. Trying to run this costs far more than it saves. Shorten the stride, lean on the poles, keep moving.
The backbone of the course runs from km 96 to km 103: net 726 m over 6.9 km at 11% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 27%, 816 m of climbing in total with 90 m given back. Heaviest kilometres: km 101 163 m, km 100 154 m, km 103 150 m, km 98 128 m. By the time you start it, about 73% of the day's climbing is behind you. Running is off the table only in the steepest roughly 250 m core; hike that part with short steps and run again once the grade eases.
The longest descent starts at km 101 and loses 372 m by km 111 at 4% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 22%. Its length can load the quads, so begin under control and build rhythm only when the ground and visibility allow it. The drop at km 115 averages 26% over its steepest roughly 250 m section; shorten the stride, stay balanced and set speed to the ground instead of braking continuously.
The last 6 km drop 119 m. If anything is left in your legs, spend it here.
A steep pitch starts within about 1.3 km of ESPORLES; keep the stop short and do not enter it on cooled-down legs.
The leg from BUNYOLA to ORIENT is long and unsupported: 14 km and 783 m of climbing with no aid in between, so leave BUNYOLA with full capacity.
You reach the climb after ALARÓ with about 547 m of descent already in your quads; treat its first half as recovery effort.
You reach the climb after CAN BAJOCA with about 465 m of descent already in your quads; treat its first half as recovery effort.
•This course reaches 1206 m. At the high-point coordinate, the same week historically ran 10°C to 16°C. Typical daily maximum wind was 16 km/h, reaching 40 km/h in the sample. This is climate history, not the race-day forecast; keep the shell accessible if race week looks similar.
•Sunset is 18:50 and the finish cut-off is 04:30. A runner using the full time allowance spends the final 10 hours 16 minutes in darkness.
•Get the headtorch out before sunset and keep spare batteries or a power bank dry and immediately accessible. A spare buried at the bottom of the pack is not an emergency spare.
•Check reflective course markers regularly in the dark. If the markings disappear, stop moving forward, return to the last marker and confirm the route against the GPX or organiser app.
•At cut-off pace you run into a second night. Plan the sleep question before race day: an hour gained on the first night costs two on the second.
•Consider bringing poles. The course averages 40 m of gain per km and the longest climb averaging over 5% runs 8 km; if you have trained with them and the organiser allows them, use them on the climbs and stow them on runnable ground.
•Point to point: the finish sits 24.6 km from the start as the crow flies. Sort the shuttle and your drop bag before race day.

•The longest stretch between official aid stations runs from BUNYOLA (km 38) to ORIENT (km 52): 14 km, with 782 m of climbing in between. Top up at BUNYOLA and size what you carry to the expected duration and your own drinking rate.
•Drinks only, no food, at SÓLLER (km 131). Loosen the flask caps on approach; with no queue, refill and leave in 20-30 seconds. Carry the food you will need from the previous station.
•COLL DE SA LÍNIA (km 82) is a timing point only, with nothing on the table. Load up as you leave CAN BAJOCA.
•Hot food is served at ALARÓ (km 60) and LLUC (km 97). If your stomach and race plan call for it, make this a deliberate 3-5 minute stop; do not sit down simply because hot food is available. Restart gently and let your stomach settle before lifting the effort.
•Food is available at ESPORLES (km 14) and VALLDEMOSSA (km 25) and 7 more. Decide what you need before reaching the table; without a planned special task, collect food and fluids and leave within 60-90 seconds. Finish eating on the next calm, suitable section.
•Drop bags at ALARÓ (km 60) and LLUC (km 97). Write down the equipment and food you expect to replace before the race so the decision is already made when you arrive.
•Crew support is permitted only at ALARÓ (km 60) and LLUC (km 97). This is not the same as a drop bag: plan equipment and food hand-offs around these stations, then verify wristband, bag and transport rules with the organiser.
•The last aid station is SÓLLER (km 131), leaving 7 km to the finish. After that you are on what you carry.
•The heaviest leg runs from LLUC (km 97) to COLL DES PRAT (km 104): 7 km with 811 m of climbing. Treat it as the slowest part of your day and get your food out before it.
•Medical support is available at ESPORLES (km 14), VALLDEMOSSA (km 25), BUNYOLA (km 38), ALARÓ (km 60), TOSSALS VERDS (km 70), CAN BAJOCA (km 77), SON AMER (km 87), LLUC (km 97), CÚBER (km 111), FORNALUTX (km 123), and PORT DE SÓLLER (km 138). If something is wrong with your feet or your stomach, deal with it there rather than pushing on.
•About 1 km after ORIENT (km 52), a roughly 250 m section averaging 22% begins. Choose food you know you digest easily and fill the bottles, then enter the climb at a controlled effort.
•The overall cut-off is 30h 30m, including all checkpoint stops. Build the plan around the official leg budgets below, not a flat-course average pace.
•Relative to distance and climbing, the tightest official time budget runs from Start to ESPORLES (km 14): the official time budget is 2h 15m for 14 km and 553 m of climbing. Station stops come out of that same budget, so do not enter the leg already behind schedule.

The race climbs from the gun: 215 m over the first 4.4 km. Do not chase the crowd, the two minutes you win here get taken back with interest.
The climb between km 2 and km 8: 447 m over 5.6 km at 8% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 17%. Kilometre by kilometre: km 3 49 m, km 4 93 m, km 5 95 m, km 6 85 m, km 7 101 m, km 8 54 m. This is hiking terrain, not running terrain. Walk it with intent and keep your heart rate off the ceiling.
The backbone of the course runs from km 11 to km 18: net 724 m over 6.9 km at 11% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 27%, 813 m of climbing in total with 89 m given back. Heaviest kilometres: km 15 173 m, km 16 147 m, km 18 141 m, km 13 127 m. Running is off the table only in the steepest roughly 250 m core; hike that part with short steps and run again once the grade eases.
The climb between km 27 and km 31: net 336 m over 4.2 km at 8% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 25%, 556 m of climbing in total with 220 m given back. Kilometre by kilometre: km 28 166 m, km 29 185 m, km 30 53 m, km 31 112 m. Trying to run this costs far more than it saves. Shorten the stride, lean on the poles, keep moving.
The longest descent starts at km 16 and loses 419 m by km 27 at 4% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 22%. Its length can load the quads, so begin under control and build rhythm only when the ground and visibility allow it. The drop at km 30 averages 36% on the GPX trace over its steepest roughly 250 m section; shorten the stride, stay balanced and set speed to the ground instead of braking continuously.
The last 6 km drop 115 m. If anything is left in your legs, spend it here.
A steep pitch starts within about 0.3 km of LLUC; keep the stop short and do not enter it on cooled-down legs.
A steep pitch starts within about 1.7 km of CÚBER; keep the stop short and do not enter it on cooled-down legs.
A steep pitch starts within about 0.3 km of SÓLLER; keep the stop short and do not enter it on cooled-down legs.
•This course reaches 1206 m. At the high-point coordinate, the same week historically ran 10°C to 16°C. Typical daily maximum wind was 16 km/h, reaching 40 km/h in the sample. This is climate history, not the race-day forecast; keep the shell accessible if race week looks similar.
•Sunset is 18:48 and the finish cut-off is 20:00. A runner using the full time allowance spends the final 1 hour 12 minutes in darkness.
•Get the headtorch out before sunset and keep spare batteries or a power bank dry and immediately accessible. A spare buried at the bottom of the pack is not an emergency spare.
•Check reflective course markers regularly in the dark. If the markings disappear, stop moving forward, return to the last marker and confirm the route against the GPX or organiser app.
•Consider bringing poles. The course averages 45 m of gain per km and the longest climb averaging over 5% runs 6.9 km; if you have trained with them and the organiser allows them, use them on the climbs and stow them on runnable ground.
•The climbing is stacked into the first half. Start easy; even with less climbing later, the descents and accumulated fatigue still have to be managed.
•17% of the course is steep descent. Increase your cadence instead of braking, or your quads go early.
•Point to point: the finish sits 18.2 km from the start as the crow flies. Sort the shuttle and your drop bag before race day.

•Medical support is available at SELVA (km 0), LLUC (km 11), CÚBER (km 25), FORNALUTX (km 41), and PORT DE SÓLLER (km 56). If something is wrong with your feet or your stomach, deal with it there rather than pushing on.
•About 2 km after CÚBER (km 25), a roughly 250 m section averaging 22% begins. Choose food you know you digest easily and fill the bottles, then enter the climb at a controlled effort.
•The overall cut-off is 12h, including all checkpoint stops. Build the plan around the official leg budgets below, not a flat-course average pace.
•Relative to distance and climbing, the tightest official time budget runs from Start to LLUC (km 11): the official time budget is 2h for 11 km and 521 m of climbing. Station stops come out of that same budget, so do not enter the leg already behind schedule.
