About Active Canaria

ActiveCanaria’s  warm weather training camps and training holidays offers runners an affordable opportunity to escape the harsh weather of colder climates, and to train and race in the warmth of the beautiful, mountainous, Spanish island of Gran Canaria, situated 200km from the coast of the African Sahara.

At a minimum, we can provide a chance for you to enjoy running in a stunning location; an active alternative to spending all your time on the beach or lazing by the pool. For the more serious runner, we can provide competitive and demanding warm weather training programs.

Who uses ActiveCanaria?

We cater for individuals, clubs, families and groups of all ages and abilities.

Some clients wish to go running just for fun, and to get a bit of exercise during an otherwise normal beach holiday. Others are in training for a 5km, 10km, half-marathon or marathon at home. Many come especially to race in one of the many running events held in Gran Canaria, and a few are athletes who simple wish to maintain/ improve their performance during the winter months.

Remember that is not just runners/ athletes that use Active Canaria: we are also increasingly popular with orienteers. The Orienteering scene in Gran Canaria is expanding rapidly, with the number of new orienteering maps growing all the time, several of which are at altitude.

What all our clients do have in common though, is that they enjoy themselves and get the most out of their warm weather training holiday when they book an ActiveCanaria package.
