The municipality of Cobeña is preparing to host the sixth edition of the Trail Dehesa Night Cobeña on June 20, 2026, an 8-kilometer night race through the municipal dehesa.

The VI edition of the Trail Dehesa Night Cobeña will take place on Saturday, June 20, 2026, solidifying its place as a prominent event for running enthusiasts in the northern area of Madrid. Organized by the Cobeña City Council through its Municipal Sports Center, registration is now open and will close on Wednesday, June 17, at 12:00 PM.
The starting point will be located at Carretera M-103, kilometer 6.5, at the entrance to the Dehesa de Cobeña, a natural space that will serve as the setting for this mountain race. Participants will encounter natural paths and moderate elevation changes characteristic of the Madrid lowlands.
The route covers 8 kilometers, divided into two laps of a circuit designed within the dehesa. This format allows spectators to follow the event closely and cheer on runners at each pass, creating a festive atmosphere. The start is scheduled for 9:45 PM, taking advantage of the darkness for a unique night running experience, which requires special equipment such as headlamps and an adapted strategy.
The organization has announced new features and multiple prizes for this sixth edition, with details to be revealed soon. The inclusion of prizes in various categories aims to encourage participation from runners of all levels.
The general registration fee is 20 euros. Those interested can complete their registration through the online platform Timing Lap until June 17. The start and finish point is the Municipal Sports Center La Dehesa, accessible from the Carretera M-103 (kilometer 6.5).
