This triathlon combines the mountain race with the triathlon and is played on the northern slopes of the Sierra de Guadarrama close to the Peñalara Peak, the Real Sitio de San Ildefonso and the Pinares de Valsaín.

This triathlon is part of the circuit Royal Circuit Grand Slam Site, where they combine Race by Mountain, triathlon y Duathlon in the privileged environment of the Real Sitio and the pine forests of Valsaín, recently declared a Biosphere Reserve. This is the calendar:

  • July 20: IX Valsaín Mountain Triathlon - 2nd Lola Velayos Memorial >> Valsaín & Pantano del Pontón
  • July 27: Mountain Half Marathon - K22 Peñalara >> La Granja
  • August 15: Vertical Kilometer to Peñalara >> CENEAN (Valsaín)

The circuit is organized by the CD La Granja Grand Slam jointly with the Real Site Council with the exception of the K22 that is organized by GM La Acebeda but evidently this test scores equally to the rest for the final ranking of the Circuit.
