The 2026 edition will take place from 12 to 15 November and, as an S2 category event, forms part of the Union Cycliste Internationale's international calendar. A new stage in Barlovento has been added, meaning the race now comprises four stages on the island. The route takes in some of La Palma's most striking landscapes, from the laurel forests in the north to the volcanic landscapes in the south.
The race kicks off in Barlovento with an individual time trial known as Barlobike. The course is 23 kilometres long and features 1,100 metres of climbing. On the second day, the competition moves to Fuencaliente. There, riders can choose between a long route of 68 kilometres with 1,900 metres of climbing and a short route of 48 kilometres with 1,100 metres of climbing.
The third stage will take place in El Paso on the Bike El Paso route. The long route is 48 kilometres with 1,850 metres of elevation gain, whilst the short route is 28 kilometres with 1,000 metres of elevation gain. Finally, the race concludes in Tijarafe with La Tea MTB. There, the long route covers 43 kilometres with 1,667 metres of elevation gain, whilst the short route covers 16.8 kilometres with 618 metres of elevation gain.
In total, the long race route covers 182 kilometres and more than 6,600 metres of elevation gain. The short route totals just under 116 kilometres and around 3,800 metres of elevation gain.
