PRESENTATION
OTSO ULTRA Trail SERRA DE MONTSANT-COSTA DAURADA / 17TH EDITION
OCTOBER, 10TH-11TH
The OTSO UTSM COSTA DAURADA was born from the idea of creating a balanced encounter between a natural environment of a very special value, such as that of the Serra de Montsant Natural Park; the people who inhabit the villages integrated in the territory and the athletes who, with their strong sports and human commitment, will be the ones who will trace the route that unites them…

…The competition reaches its seventeenth edition, after its debut in 2009 and the year-on-year increase in participants.
OTSO UTSM COSTA DAURADA is an accessible footrace, despite its 63km and 3,470m of elevation gain, designed to offer the experience of running in total freedom and semi-autonomy within a setting steeped in eremitic tradition, once a haven for ascetics and anchorites. The perfect environment is Monte Santo (hence its name, Montsant).
Besides the main event, the ULTRA 63k distance, there are five other races, all very interesting:
- MSM 44km: awarded 2 ITRA points and a qualifier for the UTMB 50k. This year it is part of the FEEC Endurance Cup.
- The short trails on Sunday, October 11: 25km-11km-7km. The last two have versions for walkers.
- And in this edition, we’re bringing back the MONTSANT STAGE RUN 88k stage race: Saturday 63km and Sunday 25km.
ITRA POINTS: The UTSM is a UTMB qualifying race. The main event (63km) awards 3 points in the ranking, and we’re keeping the TSM25k with 1 point in the new ranking. The Marathon-MSM will provide 2 ITRA points and will qualify for the UTMB 50k. The stage race is rated as 4 ITRA points and 100K UTMB Index.
NOTE: The event takes place over two days: Saturday, October 10th: 88k stage run + 63k ultra + 44k marathon / Sunday, October 11th: TSM25k + TSM12k + trek12 + 7k start trail.
NEW FOR 2026:
We maintain the Environmental Quality Seal at Petjada Verda – FEEC!

TOURIST INFORMATION
COSTA DAURADA – TREKKING
The interior of the Costa Daurada (Golden Coast) is an exceptional setting to enjoy nature. It is a paradise for lovers of outdoor sports, surrounded by green colors – hazelnut leaves and vineyards – gray colors – olive trees – and ochers and browns – from the stones of monasteries and churches – all surrounded by the blue sky blue.
In this natural environment we have been able to practice different types of active tourism to discover the flora and fauna of the territory: excursions to know wetlands, routes on BTT bikes, either on the mountain or near the beach, trekking and even caving dressed as real cavers with helmets and everything! In addition, we can been seduced with the attractions of the Poblet Natural Area of National Interest – included in the Natural Interest Areas Plan -, the forests of the Prades mountains and the Montsant Natural Park, with the almost 20 km of the Montsant mountains and the Paz Summit, that, since the 12th century, shelters at its feet the Escaladei charterhouse, the first of the Iberian peninsula.
To all this we have to add the different villages of the interior of the Costa Daurada (Golden Coast): areas where time seems stopped and where we are able to wonderfully rest wonderfully after so much activity.
