From the higher parts of Marbella you have beautiful views towards Africa, sometimes even from the beach you can see the mountains of Morocco. To make sure you will enjoy at least one of these views, we’ve set out a route that will lead you to the ‘Altos de Marbella’ and then on to the beach.
The views are definitely worth it, but your legs might protest a bit along the way.

Start your day with a nice cup of coffee at the Walking Village. Alongside the route, you will find bars and restaurants that serve all kinds of foods and drinks. We know our walkers well, so in the places where you most need to refresh your energy, you will find a food station with snacks, coffee and other refreshments.
Our volunteers will scan your chip at the different checkpoints you will pass. In this way, we more or less know where you are and know that you've walked the route altogether. You can use the restrooms at these checkpoints, and there will be refreshments.
You will walk with others. Our safety cars will always be on the route to help out if needed and coordinate with the police and ambulances, who are present along the routes. In case of an emergency during the event, you can call us on our emergency number at +34 623 329 969. (also printed in your Info Guide) TIP: add this to your phone!
On Wednesday the 2nd of October, you can pick up your credentials registration at the Registration tent between 10.00 and 16.00 hrs. If you still need to complete your registration, our volunteers will help you to sign up while at the Plaza. (€5 more expensive) Sign Up Online DIY is cheaper!
There are different starting times, depending on the number of kilometres you choose, and these are between 8.00 - 11.00 hrs. (Challenge routes start at 07.30 hrs). All walkers must be back before 16.00 hrs to have this day counted as one of the four days. You only receive your medal after completing four days.
The best kick-off for your adventure in Marbella is our White Party on Wednesday. On the other days, we invite you to enjoy the festive ambience with live performances and DJ’s from noon till early evening. There’s music, food and drinks, you only have to bring your party mood and enough energy to dance!
