The XIV Hospiten 8KM Orotava opens registration for its 2026 edition. The XIV Hospiten 8KM Orotava has officially opened its registration period for the 2026 edition, which will once again turn the streets of the municipality into an authentic sporting and social spectacle.

Registrations can already be formalized through the official platform: https://inscripciones.chronotrackcanarias.com/inscripcion/xiv-hospiten-8km-orotava-2026/
The main event, the Hospiten 8KM, will once again be the main attraction of a program that is constantly growing and which includes the III 4KM Maderas Evelio, the X Hospiten Infantil Solidaria and the II Carrera de Los Abuelos Tecnocasa, all of them on the same Saturday. Meanwhile, on the eve -Friday, July 24-, the VI Vertical Nocturne El Locero - Maderas Evelio will be held, thus completing the already consolidated Orotava 2026 Circuit.
With the support of the Sports Department of the Cabildo de Tenerife, Hospiten, La Orotava City Council, Sinpromi, Maderas Evelio, El Locero and the rest of the collaborating entities, the race reaches its fourteenth edition reaffirming its essence: not just being a race, but an event that makes disability visible and uses sport as a real tool for social transformation.
In this line, the 14th edition will once again feature the program InclúyeT Superación Permanente, which will celebrate its fifth installment during the week of the event -from July 20 to 26, 2026-. A space that will continue to focus on inspiring stories, first-person testimonials and innovative formats that invite reflection, emotion and, above all, progress towards a more inclusive society. In addition, an unprecedented challenge is already being prepared in the Canary Islands.
This year's poster, starring Leire and her family, is the perfect reflection of that spirit. Her story, marked by the daily struggle against a neurodegenerative disease, shows that there are no limits when the attitude is to move forward, step by step, always forward.
Thus begins the countdown for a new edition of the Orotava Circuit, which is expected to exceed one thousand participants and in which, once again, sport will be the meeting point where not only running is done, but also normalization, inclusion and empathy.
