On Sunday, La Mitja (22km and 1500 m positive) will release a new trail passing through the old towns up to Beraní and Roní, to come back to Sant Romà de Tavèrnoles leading to the corridors of wonderful places.
Closing the edition, La Caminada, will be a non-competitive option, with 700 m of positive slope, to give everyone the chance to do 11km in a more relaxing way along Assua Valley.
Four modalities which bring the athletes to find new dreams, new challenges and showing them the heart of our beings.

Organizational Committee
Rialp Matxicots 2021
Rialp Matxicots was created by a group of enthusiastic people who loves the mountain, over ten years ago. The goal was to connect two of the most emblematic peaks located on the south of Pallars Sobira: Montsent de Pallars and Pic de l’Orri.
Rialp Matxicots’s goal wants to preserve our region’s heritage, natural and cultural areas, and making known the same trails that let our ancestors to these hills.
Rialp Matxicots event has been made by a large group of volunteers, from different ages and profiles, who collaborate in a selfless way to organize an event of this nature.
The Rialp Matxicots has a true alpine character, it will give you up more than 2.800 m and it crosses along beautiful landscapes over 2.000 m, going up and down stunning mountains. All around a magical territory which varies in its many forms, including two jewels of the Pyrenees: on the one hand the peripheral zone of Agüestortes National Park and Sant Maurici Lake as a unique National Park in Catalonia, and on the other hand the Alt Pirineu Natural Park, the biggest one in Catalonia.
