The essence of the ULTRA, with the magic of the 42 km. Live the adventure from Quéntar to Pradollano.
MARATÓN is the reduced version of the UNICAJA ULTRA SIERRA NEVADA. The route, checkpoints and aid stations are the same as the 40 km from Quéntar to Pradollano, where the finish line of the four modalities is installed.
It is designed to offer an alternative with less physical demanding and a bigger timeframe for those who want to be part of the UNICAJA ULTRA SIERRA NEVADA environment.
MARATÓN SIERRA NEVADA has the start line at 08:00 a.m. on Saturday 5 April at Quéntar
MARATÓN has an accumulated altitude of 2.700 m+ . With the character of semi-autonomy the MARATÓN has a maximum time of 10 hours to be completed. The maximum bib numbers available are 450.

FINISH LINE
There will be generalised and/or random material controls at any point along the route. Failure to wear any of these items will result in the immediate invalidation of the race bib.
It is also allowed the use of spiked mountain shoes specific for ice and snow races (with built-in spike system).
Upper clothing (It is not mandatory to run with it):
The MARATHON will have a cloakroom service with a single bag that will be handed out at the start and collected at the finish line.
Due to the great difference in weather conditions between the different sections of the Ultra Sierra Nevada course and the impossibility of knowing for certain the weather conditions during the race, the obligatory equipment indicated will be MANDATORY from start to finish.
It may seem excessive but in the mountains you never know what can happen and in case of an accident this material is vital.
We recommend that you check the weather forecast the days before to choose the equipment to use.
