Trail Running Reviews
I joined the Trail Running holiday and have been recommending it to everybody I know since! My wife booked the holiday for me as birthday gift so I traveled alone and joined a few other friendly runners for the week. The trip really exceeded my expectations…I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the area and humbled by all of the history I learned along the way. I loved running through all the small villages (some occupied while others are still abandoned), through and over canyons, visiting ancient caves of the indigenous and even climbing to the top of Comodoto.”

I stayed at Casa Allué recently for a trail running holiday and I can honestly say it was one of the best trips I have taken. The location is stunning and the farmhouse renovation has been done so well. It far exceeded what I was expecting.
Simon and Lucy provided our running group with fantastic guides who were able to provide both the local knowledge of the Pyrenees mountains and years of experience of trail running. We were treated to fantastic runs with simply stunning views every day. I’m struggling to pick any one run as the best one, as each one had something a bit special. The word “WOW” was used a lot!
If you like trail running, you’ll love this holiday.
