About Us

Why should   you join  our running vacations?

Because we are truly locals where we run.

We’re Cris & Pablo. Since 2011, we’ve taken runners like you deep into jungles, mountains and deserts.
Places without Wi-Fi. Without noise. Without pressure

We don’t run for fitness.
We run to reconnect—with the land, with others, with ourselves.

Every route is handcrafted.
Every group is small.
And we run every step with you.

This isn’t a race. It’s a return to what matters.

What is a running vacation?

A running vacation is a small-group adventure holiday built around running the world's most beautiful trails — not racing.

Instead of training alone for a marathon, you spend a week running wild trails with a handful of like-minded runners and expert local guides who carry every logistic so you can simply run, explore and recover. Days follow a natural rhythm: a guided trail run through mountains, coastline or desert in the morning, then real food, rest and local culture in the afternoon. At NomaTrails we have been designing and guiding running vacations since 2011.

A NomaTrails running holiday is different from a running tour that shuttles you between hotels. Our trips are point-to-point journeys on foot, village to village, at a pace the whole group can enjoy. You do not need to be fast — you need to love being outside, moving through wild places on your own two feet.

Guided running vacations on five hand-built routes

Every NomaTrails running vacation is fully guided by the founders and local experts who know each trail intimately. We run five destinations, each a completely different flavour of trail running holiday:

  • Morocco — a true crossing from the snow-dusted High Atlas to the dunes of the Sahara.
  • Costa Rica — a jungle-to-Pacific expedition from the cloud forests of Cerro de la Muerte down to the coast.
  • Sicily — sea-to-summit running past Erice, the Zingaro reserve and the salt flats.
  • Pyrenees — high mountain trails running from the peaks down to the Mediterranean.
  • Costa Brava — wild Catalan coastline, hidden coves and coastal-path running.

Whether you want a demanding mountain adventure or a gentler coastal running holiday, there is a NomaTrails trip that matches your level and your sense of wonder.

Small groups, local guides, family-run since 2011

We keep our groups small on purpose. Small groups mean real friendships, safer trails, and a guide who actually knows your name and your pace. NomaTrails is family-run — the same people who design the routes are with you on the trail, at dinner, and around the fire at night. That is why runners come back year after year, and why so many of our trips sell out ahead of time.
