Sports & Outdoors This Week | Málaga & Costa del Sol | August 24–30, 2026

This week’s Sports & Outdoors guide is about choosing your level of commitment — from a major football night and a sold-out trail race to kayaking, canyoning, climbing and simpler ways to get outside. Carmen and Baptiste begin with Málaga CF v RC Deportivo at La Rosaleda, a particularly significant home fixture after Málaga’s return to LaLiga.

There is also the San Antón Night Trail in eastern Málaga, treated as a spectator and community event because entries are already sold out, plus the Gold Cup polo finals in Sotogrande, San Roque, Cádiz.

For visitors who want to take part rather than watch, the episode explores guided Guadalmina canyoning, Maro kayaking, the Tajo de Ronda via ferrata, Caminito del Rey, and lighter options such as swimming at La Malagueta or heading into Málaga’s hills.

The episode also looks at one of the Costa del Sol’s great outdoor advantages: the way coast, city hills, gorges, cliffs and inland mountains sit surprisingly close together, giving visitors very different kinds of active day within the same holiday.
