El Sur 2027 takes place on 2027-03-14 in Málaga. Ride 800 km of gravel with up to 15000 m of climbing.
El Sur offers a challenging yet rewarding parcours, covering 800 kilometers with a significant 15,000 meters of elevation gain.

The climbing rhythm is varied, featuring long ascents that lead to expansive vistas, interspersed with faster, flowing segments. This epic journey unfolds in the heart of Andalucía, starting and finishing in the vibrant coastal city of Málaga. The route delves deep into the region's rugged mountains, revealing a landscape rich with olive groves, hidden lakes, and ancient terrain, far beyond the typical coastal resorts. It is perfectly suited for riders seeking a substantial bikepacking challenge, those who appreciate self-supported exploration, and anyone eager to immerse themselves in the authentic beauty of southern Spain. The event runs from March 14 to March 19, 2027, with the start scheduled for 12:00. Entries for this demanding adventure open on March 13, 2027.
