VNR Alert: Otso Ultra Trail Serra de Montsant – Costa Daurada ready to welcome trail running enthusiasts

The Serra de Montsant experienced on October 11th, an unforgettable day with the celebration of the 16th edition of the Otso Ultra Trail Serra de Montsant – Costa Daurada, an event already established as one of the most emblematic trail running races in Catalonia. Starting and finishing in Ulldemolins, the event brought together more than half a thousand runners in an incredible natural setting, combining sport, nature, and a great atmosphere.

The weather accompanied throughout the day, with pleasant temperatures and a clear sky with a few clouds for most of the day. Only at midday did a light rain appear, adding an epic touch to the closing of the competition.

A day full of sport and perseverance
Unlike previous editions, this year all distances were held today, Saturday, concentrating the excitement and activity into a single day. From the early hours of the morning, the streets of Ulldemolins filled up to kick off the first start of the day: the UTSM 63 km and the Marathon-MSM 44 km. Afterwards, three more races followed: the 25 km, the 11 km (run and trek mode), and finally, the 7 km.

The courses took participants through the most emblematic landscapes of the area. The Serra de Montsant offered spectacular views, with a route known for its toughness and technical trails.
 

Outstanding results
The sporting day brought great performances across all distances.
In the large race, 63 km, Víctor del Águila Pellicer crossed the finish line in first place, ahead of Pau Capell and Raul Garcia. In the women’s category, there was an intense battle until the very end between Miriam Moreno, Belen Simarro, and Candela Abella. In the 44 km distance, Iván Calvo Vigara took the victory, with Ragna Debats finishing third overall and first among women.

In the 25 km, Oriol Gibert Solé claimed a dominant victory, crossing the finish line more than fifteen minutes ahead of the runner-up. The podium was completed by Guillem Lluch Ruiz and Adan Hidalgo Aguilar. In the women’s category, Abril Parra took first place, followed by Eliam Ajuria and Almudena Gonzalez.

The 11 km distance gave us some unforgettable moments; the men’s category winner was Mikel Besora Susaño, followed by Saul Ajuria Fernández and Jan Oramas Marín, while in the women’s race, Gemma Colom Aler took the win, ahead of Amalia Dolores Cubero Orellana and Rosalia Tomás Ripoll.

With the support of major institutions
The 16th edition of the UTSM was supported by Costa Daurada, the Diputació de Tarragona, Otso Sport, and numerous partner brands, reaffirming the event’s role as a benchmark for trail running in Catalonia.

An edition marked by effort, camaraderie, and a love for the mountains — once again proving that the Serra de Montsant is a perfect stage for this kind of adventure.
