Transvulcania 2021 will be the last week of October. As reported yesterday by the organization, it will open the registrations when the schedules and routes are defined. WHat has been confirmed is that all finish lines will be in Los Llanos de Aridane. Have a look at the start in Fuencaliente as we lived it in the last edition of 2019.

TRANSVULCANIA 2021

Restrictions imposed by the European Union on passenger traffic from third countries and the impossibility of ensuring the health of participants, relatives and amateurs forced the postponement of Transvulcania from 2020 to 2021. The global health situation caused by Covid-19 forced the suspension of Transvulcania 2020, despite being rescheduled from 26 September to 3 October after it had to be held virtually in May. Now, Cabildo is betting again on October for his race.

Transvulcania 2021 will be held in the last week of October, the organization confirmed today. The decision has been taken by the public company Sodepal and the Ministry of Sports of the Cabildo de La Palma, arguing that they are betting on the hope that on that date there will be vaccine that guarantees control of COVID-19.

Therefore, to maintain the maximum possible flexibility and rigor, they will open the registrations later, when the schedules and routes are defined, although the organization of the sporting event advances that all races will end in Los Llanos de Aridane. The proposed new format for the 2020 edition, now extended to an entire week, will be maintained and will return in all its modalities.
