Formentera provides special experiences all year long in addition to a Mediterranean summer heaven. The island becomes a perfect place for individuals who like to mix the enjoyment of sport with a leisure trip because of its warm temperature and attractive scenery.
The 15K Formentera Night Run, the Formentera All Round Trail, the half marathon and the Triatló Illa de Formentera are ideal chances to actively see the island. Various sporting events take place all year.
The countdown for the first edition of the 15K Formentera Night Run, scheduled for October 5th, has formally started with September almost here. A real sensory experience where the sea wind, the soothing sound of the waves breaking on the coast and the silence of the island mix to produce a magnificent environment.
Apart from the 15K Formentera Night Run, a 15-kilometer round path beginning and ending in Es Pujols, the beating core of the island, enthusiasts of short distances can try their hand at the 5K Sunset Run.
Two stars from the Spanish sports scene will honour the event: cyclist Valentí Sanjuan and runner Alex Roca from the Marathon held at the previous Paris Olympics.
Starting with the Formentera All Round Trail in April, which brings together aficionados of the sport and more; a show of resistance and adventure with departures from several spots on the island and terminating at the Port of La Savina opens the spring season.
Comprising 74 km, the Formentera All Round Trail is the major race encouraging participants to discover the most untamed settings of the island. Starting from Es Arenals beach, the 40.5-kilometer Half Round Formentera Trail winds from La Mola and ends at Puerto de La Savina, a shorter but equally well-liked route. Starting from Es Caló, also terminating at Puerto de La Savina, the third distance, 21 km, is known as Tros de FART. The relay race in pairs lets competitors take turns at each refreshment site to finish the trip of the island, therefore adding competitiveness and team spirit.
It will be the turn of the Marnaton, a swim of 8km, 4km or 2km in the glistening clean waters of Formentera and the ½ Marathon, in two distances: 21km and 8km – which will pass some of the most famous sites on the island in May.
Highly awaited event from 1 to 7 June 2025 with the Formentera to Run, a five-stage race covering a total of 60km that lets participants see every nook and cranny of this Balearic gem and appreciate the natural beauty of its landscapes.
