Who you would be running with

Not a tour company. A family that runs.

Pablo and Cristina built every route on their own feet, and they are on the trip you book — Pablo running at the back of the group, Cristina moving the week ahead of you. In each country the local guide is a friend of theirs who lives there.

What makes the week different

This isn’t a tour. It’s one dinner table.

Everyone eats together, the stages bend to the people on them, and nobody finishes a day alone. That is the part the reviews keep describing, and it is the part no itinerary can show you.

You feel like old friends after just a few days. Running through wonderful places, learning something about yourself, a week of authentic memories.Darren B. · Costa Brava

Three kinds of week

All wild. Each one different.

What changes between the trips is the daily distance, the ground under your feet and where you sleep.

Before you ask us

Are these running vacations for you?

Our answer first, then a review from someone who had the same doubt. All of them are published under their own names, and they are part of the 5.0 from 88 reviews.

“Am I fit enough?”

If you can comfortably run 10–12 km with plenty of stops, you will be fine. We adapt the pace to the group. The free fit call exists to answer this honestly for your case.

My first running holiday and my fears were soon allayed. Their passion for getting a real feeling of an area is invigorating and motivating. Trails meticulously planned, accommodations far exceeded expectations.Arthur F.Sicily

“Will I be the slowest one there?”

There is no front of the pack to keep up with. Stages can be shortened or walked, the support van shadows the route, and the day bends to the people on it.

A fantastic trip in Sicily! Trails over many mountains into beach towns, and the views were STUNNING. We ran at our own paces with Pablo and Pasqual the whole time — laughter, great food and very nice hotels.Amanda Z.Sicily

“I would be coming on my own.”

Most runners do. Prices are per person in a shared room, so a solo traveller only pays a small single-room supplement if they want one.

You feel like old friends after just a few days. Running through wonderful places, learning something about yourself, a week of authentic memories. My wife and I are already thinking about when we can come back!Darren B.Costa Brava

“What if something happens out there?”

A support van shadows the route, every group is tracked by GPS, and the guide in each country is a mountain professional who lives there. Travel insurance is yours to arrange; we tell you what to cover.

I had a fall, and the care I received from Pablo — never leaving my side — and the team was exceptional. Pablo and Pasquale are such caring individuals.Leif P.Sicily

“Is it worth the money?”

One price covers the guiding, the hotels, the luggage van, the breakfasts and the dinners. You add your flight, most lunches and your insurance. The brochure prices every week in full.

I did the Atlas to Sahara and had the best time of my life — an adventure like no other, way better than anything I had imagined. One of the best adventures your money will ever buy!Oxana C.Morocco

“Do people come back?”

Often enough that we plan dates around them. Several runners are on their fifth, sixth or eighth week with us, in different countries.

I have such treasured memories from my running adventures with Nomatrails — 8 trips including Costa Brava, the Pyrenees, Morocco and Costa Rica. I can't wait to do the Italy trip one of these days!Sacha M.eight trips, four countries
