Oncotrail Palafrugell

The Baix Empordà region is preparing for a new edition of Oncotrail, a charity team race that combines sport, nature and social commitment with a very clear objective: to raise funds to improve the quality of life of people with cancer.

The challenge presents a demanding yet unique experience: completing a circular route of approximately 100 kilometers, starting and finishing in Palafrugell, within a maximum time of 30 hours. Participating teams will need to join forces, coordinate, and work together to overcome the route, which traverses various landscapes of the Baix Empordà region.

Beyond its sporting aspect, Oncotrail stands out for its strong charitable component. The funds raised go to the Oncolliga Girona Foundation, specifically to services that help improve the well-being of patients and their families. These resources include psychological support, physiotherapy, lymphatic drainage, a wig bank, and other complementary services.

Part of the proceeds also contribute to boosting cancer research, thus strengthening the fight against the disease through direct care and scientific knowledge.

Participating is much more than running or walking. It's about being part of a collective movement that values shared effort, solidarity, and the importance of raising awareness in society about the daily fight against cancer.

Organized by the Oncolliga Girona Foundation, the Palafrugell Hiking Group and the Palafrugell Athletic Club, the Oncotrail has established itself as an essential event for athletes, volunteers and people committed to a cause that challenges us all.
