Grande Trail da Serra D´Arga

Grande Trail da Serra d'Arga is a 50 km mountain trail race based in Dem, in the Caminha area of northern Portugal. The route packs in 3,000 meters of climbing, so this is a long, steep day on foot rather than a gentle countryside run. The race counts for the UTMB Index in the 50K category, which makes it useful for runners building a trail-running profile for bigger mountain events. The listed edition recorded 199 finishers, giving it the feel of a focused regional trail race rather than a huge mass-start event.
