Condition Forecast for GR 178

Estimated trail surface condition and wetness breakdown for GR 178 in Northeast Spain, Es.

ES / Northeast Spain

GR 178

Length: 9.99 km

Surface Score
6 /10
Mixed / Drying
GR 178 has mixed conditions today. Some slow-drying shaded or low-drainage sections may be damp.

Why this matters: Loamcast provides an automated mud forecast and MTB trail conditions overview to assess wet trail risk. By analyzing recent weather, soil, and terrain elevation signals, it operates as an off-road cycling route checker and GPX route condition analysis tool, helping riders evaluate gravel route conditions before heading out.

Use judgment Expect mixed surface conditions. Avoid low spots and turn back if the surface is deforming under tyres.
Heavy recent rain 72.0 mm fell in the last 24h. Expect standing water and soft edges.
Soft-surface sensitivity This surface class can deteriorate quickly after rain; treat puddles and rutting as a stronger signal than the average score.
Weather degraded Weather coverage is degraded for this location. Treat the score as lower confidence until the cache refreshes.

Why this road is mixed / damp today

  • Surface: holds water and can become muddy.
  • Recent rain: heavy rain (72.0 mm) in the last 24h, saturating the ground.
  • Terrain: no strong lowland/water-retention signal; open exposure aids drying.
  • Confidence: High — based on weather and terrain models; no recent user observations are available.

Condition Breakdown

Surface
Used as a drainage and grip modifier in the condition model.
 Ground
Moisture Sensitivity
Absorbs water quickly and turns soft. Dries slowly, especially under tree canopy.
 High
Rutting & Washout Risk
Saturated soft ground. Significant risk of deep ruts, deforming under load, and local washouts.
 High
Recent rain
0.0 mm in 48h, 0.0 mm in 72h.
 72.0 mm / 24h
Weather pressure
Multiplier from current weather state and recent precipitation memory.
 1.10x
Temperature
Affects drying rate via surface evaporation.
 16.4 °C
Humidity
High relative humidity slows down surface moisture evaporation.
