Just a few weeks ago, Puro Pirineo, the most alpine MTB destination in Spain and our base camp for TransNomad 2025, introduced Turbón Mágico: a new sector that’s set to become one of the most sought-after of the season.
We spoke with Eduardo Moreno, manager of Puro Pirineo (and official photographer of TransNomad), about this new gem of enduro in Huesca that will play a major role in our 2025 edition.
Who’s behind the creation of this new sector, and how long has it been in the works?
The project has been developed entirely by Puro Pirineo, with our own trailbuilding team. Turbón Mágico really comes from the desire to integrate the Campo area’s trails into a MTB center. Of course, we thought it was a great idea, so we started working on the trails a couple of years ago, though intermittently.
What kind of trails can we expect?
In the end, we’ve opened up seven new trails, which not only form part of Puro Pirineo, but also serve as a link with our friends from Zona Zero Pirineos, as some of them, like La Vuelta a la Peña Montañesa, are shared between both regions.
As for the type of trails, most of them are enduro-style, although you’ll also find some XC gems and a ciclo-alpine route that will be a new addition to the area (and also one of the new features of TransNomad 2025).
How does Turbón Mágico complement the existing catalog at Puro Pirineo?
Aside from a change in the type of terrain, the biggest contribution to the center is undoubtedly the extension of the riding season. While the Castejón area offers riding opportunities for much of the year, the Campo – Turbón Mágico area is perfect for year-round enjoyment. This is definitely a huge bonus for the region and the MTB community.
Any must-ride routes you’d recommend?
Definitely! Until the tracks are available on the Puro Pirineo website in the coming days, I highly recommend La Margalida, which runs through a virtually untouched valley with some really beautiful trails.
