A travel experience for runners.
 

Runcation Travel creates international running adventures for runners by runners. Instead of having to squeeze in a run on vacation, your run becomes the vehicle for exploring and learning about a new country, new culture, and a new landscape. Our 'Runcations,' or running vacations, offer a chance to disconnect, meet new friends, and travel long distance routes through some awe-inspiring landscapes. You also cover some pretty impressive mileage up and down mountains along the way.

Our running vacations combine the simplicity of running hut-to-hut in the mountains with the comforts of a vacation. This type of experience has inspired the current retreats we offer, with the added comfort of baggage transport and curated, hotel-style mountain lodges. With 3-course dinners, full bars, comfortable beds, and prime views, they’re appropriate for a true running vacation.


Our current Runcations and guided trail running trips include hut-to-hut running adventures, retreats, high altitude training camps, and guided and self-guided trail tours of the best trail running destinations in the Italian Dolomites, Chamonix Mont Blanc, Argentinian Patagonia, Slovenia, Peru, California’s Sierra Nevada, guided trail running day trips in Lake Tahoe, and more. We also offer custom and private Runcations for groups and teams. Our Runcations are for every level of runner.
