Danena klasikoa

Nestled in the heart of Gipuzkoa, the Danena Classic is more than just a race; it's a celebration of cycling culture and community spirit. Founded by cyclists for cyclists back in 1976, this beloved tradition has become an integral part of Zizurkilen’s identity. The event brings together four local clubs that were born from humble beginnings to create something truly special.
The Danena Classic is not just a race day; it's a weekend-long affair with various activities designed to honor the rich heritage and vibrant future of cycling in this Basque region. Join us as we pay tribute to the legacy of the Danena Running Club, which continues its dedication to promoting cycling through community engagement and support.
The course itself is a 117km route that winds through some of Gipuzkoa’s most picturesque landscapes. It offers cyclists an unparalleled opportunity to experience both the beauty and challenge of this rugged terrain while also connecting with fellow enthusiasts who share a passion for two-wheeled adventures.
In addition, thanks to Etxeondori's generosity, participants will once again witness the stunning autumn foliage that paints the hillsides in vivid hues. This year’s event promises an unforgettable experience, blending tradition and innovation as we look forward to what lies ahead for cycling culture in Zizurkilen and beyond.
Join us at the Danena Classic and be part of a cherished community effort dedicated to preserving and advancing the spirit of cycling.
