Join Maratón MTB La Guzmán el Bueno 2026
The MTB Guzmán el Bueno Marathon stands as one of Spain’s most celebrated mountain biking events, drawing over 3,500 participants from around the country and beyond. Riders face a demanding 105-kilometer course with nearly 2,900 meters of elevation gain, traversing the rugged and scenic terrain of the Sierra Morena, which majestically surrounds the city of Córdoba. This route is renowned for its blend of swift tracks, technical single trails, and challenging climbs, offering both breathtaking vistas and a true test of skill, endurance, and determination. However, it’s more than an athletic challenge—the marathon is defined by its vibrant community spirit, the encouragement from crowds, and the sense of achievement earned with every pedal stroke through Andalucía’s wild landscapes. Starting and finishing at Córdoba’s El Arenal Fairground, the event fosters camaraderie among cyclists and a deep connection to nature. The MTB Guzmán el Bueno is a celebration of cycling, resilience, and the unstoppable spirit of adventure.
