Trail Running Holiday Description:
You'll love our running routes, chosen to suit you personally, as you explore your limits and discover the sun-drenched Spanish countryside. You could be scaling single-track climbs, passing through pine woodland, olive groves, and white-washed villages all in one run.
If you need longer distances to improve your endurance base, then we've got the trails. Alternatively, if you need a faster, shorter, speed sharpener – well - we’ve got plenty of wide-rolling tracks too.
Before we even step foot on a trail, we’ll find out exactly what your level and goals, if any, are to enable us to put together a schedule to suit you.
Less active friends and family members are welcome to come along too; there are plenty of other things to see and do in the area to make your holiday as active or as relaxing as you choose.

I took a short break with Ultra Trail Spain a fantastic way for individuals or groups to experience the Spanish culture and reach new heights (and distances) they I never thought possible. Its five, six, seven or eight day packages can be tailored to group’s (...)

Just returned home from the beautiful hidden gem that is Moclin. The impressive views and delicious food was only outdone by Steve & Sarah's warmth and friendliness. A superb few days of challenging running through incredible scenery. Highly recommended

Very nice experience.
Sarah and Steve were very professional and insightful on the trails, and friendly and helpful before and after the runs.
