Half 23K
Twenty-three kilometres with 1,458 metres of ascent, run uphill: from the villages of the south-east up into the caldera and finishing in Tejeda under Roque Nublo, rather than down at the coast like the longer races. That makes it a short race with a very long climb, and a genuine mountain event rather than a token distance.
It opens the Transgrancanaria week, so the finish in Tejeda is the first crowd of the festival. This page belongs to the 2026 edition of the Half, with its own gun and course. On Livebib, friends and family follow the runner on the real line with a live position, splits and an arrival estimate for Tejeda — worth having on a race short enough that a spectator can easily arrive after the runner has.
