PRESENTATION
ULTRA Trail SERRA DE MONTSANT / 14TH EDITION
OCTOBER 7TH-8TH
The UTSM 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 twelfth edition, after being released in 2009 and having increased year after year the number of participants.
The UTSM is a walking race, affordable, despite its 63km and 3.200m of positive slope, with the intention of offering you the experience of running in total freedom and semi-autonomy in a framework of hermitic tradition, which served as an isolated place of world to ascetics and anacoretas who voluntarily sought the return to austerity, simplification and contemplation in silence in a perfect environment for it as is the Montsant (hence its name Monte Santo). Apart from the queen test, there are three more races so are the 27km-13km-7km trails, which will be run on Sunday. There is also the possibility of running the race in two stages, joining the Ultra 63k on Saturday and the 27k trail on Sunday, and thus adding one more ITRA point. And the novelty of this edition, the new distance of Marathon-HTSM 41km, scoring 2 ITRA points and qualifying for UTMB 50k.
ITRA POINTS: The UTSM is a qualifying race for the Ultra Trail du Montblanc. The queen test (63km) gives 3 points in the ranking. And we maintain the TSM27k with 1 point in the new ranking. There is also the possibility of running the test in two stages, joining the Ultra 63k on Saturday with the 27k trail on Sunday, and thus add one more ITRA point. And the novelty of this edition, the new Marathon-HTSM distance 41km, scoring 2 ITRA points and qualifying for UTMB 50k.
NOTE: The Ultra Trail distance of 63km will be run on Saturday October 7th, as well as the Marathon-HTSM distance, while the short distances of 27k, 13k and 7k have been placed to Sunday October 8th in the morning.
NEWS 2023: This year the Ultra 63k distance is the Campionat de Catalunya Individual de Curses d’Ultrarresistència per Muntanya de la FEEC.
RUN IN A UNIQUE ENVIRONMENT: PARC NATURAL DE LA SERRA DE MONTSANT
Montsant, a mountain of high symbolism, offers through its landscape the trace of human activity tied to an important natural heritage, which includes a high biological diversity caused by a particular relief of cliffs, ravines and gorges.
SUSTAINABLE TOURISM
The European Charter for Sustainable Tourism in Protected Natural Areas (CETS) is an initiative of the EUROPARC Federation, an organization that brings together protected natural areas in 38 European countries. EUROPARC is the managing entity that grants the link to the CETS in the protected areas, in which it verifies that there is a commitment to apply the principles of sustainable tourism in the area of the natural park that requests it and the scope of influence that it defines. It is a commitment between space managers, tourism companies and other entities and agents of the territory.
