Christmas Running Holiday Description:
Our Christmas running holiday is a trail-time, get-together, party – a chance to enjoy running in great company! Big climbs, big skies and big smiles are guaranteed as you explore some stunning trail routes around Moclin, Granada, Andalucia.
For something new; this year’s agenda will include a mix of partially-guided and self-navigation routes. Each day, will see us set out together to cover the first section of the trail together, before the chance to run ahead, self-navigated on set routes, as you wish.
Our routes cover a real mix of terrain, with something for everyone. There’s pine woodland, technical mountain trail, steep-sided ravines, wide jeep track and a sea of olive groves. A trail runner’s dream!
We, of course, meet with our fully-stocked support vehicle at regular points, so there are plenty of opportunities to fill up with water; or even take a quick break.
Numbers are very strictly limited for this special event. Check out our itinerary and plan your Christmas with us.
