Road & Trail Running Breaks in Andalucia

Welcome to Rio Frio Holidays - great road running & trail running breaks for singles, groups, clubs & teams in Andalucia, Spain, less than an hour from both Malaga and Granada airports.

At Rio Frio Holidays, we offer running holidays & training camps for every standard of road, trail and fell runner - and plenty to do for other family members. We are perfectly positioned in the historic, beautiful and lively town of Antequera - right in the heart of Andalucia. Within easy reach of the fabulous cities of Granada, Cordoba and Sevilla, and just 45 minutes from Malaga and all that the best resorts of the Costa Del Sol have to offer (if that's your bag!).

All guests are accommodated in private rooms at the 4-star hotel Finca Eslava - No preparing your own breakfast or shared bathrooms here!

We normally run around Antequera, where we have the "Spanish Lake District" of El Chorro and the stunning natural park of El Torcal almost on our doorstep. We have trail running and road running routes to suit most tastes - so long as those tastes include some hills! We also have access to a brand new running track in Loja, just 35 minutes drive away.

Our programmes for individual runners all include in the price:

bullet Accommodation in a private en-suite room in a 4-star hotel - no sharing!;

bullet Breakfast & dinner (or lunch);

bullet Complimentary tea & coffee;

bullet Guided runs;

bullet All vehicle support;

bullet Use of the hotel fitness centre and gym;

bullet Free attendance at the hotel's fitness classes;

bullet Training and cross-training advice;

bullet A health & flexibility assessment;

bullet A flexibility workshop;

bullet A sports massage.

Whether you are just starting out on a fitness programme or are training for a local 5k, the London Marathon, the Marathon des Sables or the Grand Union Canal Race, Andalucia is the place to escape those rain-soaked roads and trails and Rio Frio Holidays is the place where you can spend time with hosts who understand your needs and care about your running goals - Yes, really!

At Rio Frio Holidays, you are not just a face in a crowd, queuing for the equipment, you are the reason we are here!

Tailor-Made Running Breaks

Our running programmes are all tailored to your requirements - whether you want to jog or run on your own, run with a guide, train with a personal trainer, or as part of a group, or want to take part in one of the local races. Whatever you choose, the routes will be on quiet roads and remote trails through some of the most stunning scenery in Europe. Routes may start and/or finish on our doorstep, or we may drive to the start and/or back from the finish. Every day will be organised to suit you.

If you are recovering from injury, on a taper before your big event, or just want a change of scenery, Rio Frio Holidays - with practical training and nutritional advice and on-site sports massage therapy - is the place to be.

Racing in Andalucia

You are welcome to join us for any of our "local" running events, including the Torremolinos, Malaga & Granada Half Marathons & the Seville Marathon. We will sort out your entry and provide your accommodation and transport to and from the event. Taking part in a race abroad just doesn't get any easier! Please see the Race Calendar page for details of forthcoming events.

Cross Training

There is so much more to a running holiday or training camp with Rio Frio Holidays than just running. Between runs, why not do a spot of cross training? You can hire one of our quality mountain bikes, or make use of the hotel's state of the art fitness centre, indoor swimming pool and exercise classes - all for free! Or let us organise a horse ride, a round of golf, a game of tennis (including pro coaching), quad biking, archery, a microlight flight or a day of skiing.

Being a runner in winter doesn't always have to be about running on dark, wet roads!

We offer short breaks (minimum 2 nights), as well as longer stays, so there is always a plan to suit you and your running goals.

Please see the Prices page for price & booking details.
