Explore the Ermita de Sant Salvador
Location: Margalef, CAT
While technically in Catalonia, this 5km route is a fantastic example of a hilly, paved run that could easily be found in the UK's more mountainous regions. With a challenging 323m of ascent, it’s a serious test for your legs, ideal for hill training or indeed, preparation for a demanding road race.
Starting on a short road section before quickly transitioning to a well-marked paved trail, this out-and-back route promises panoramic views as you climb towards the Ermita. The entirely paved surface means you can focus on your stride and the ascent, making it a convenient and effective workout for runners looking to build strength and endurance.
