Custom Groups + Teams
Custom Runcations + Private Groups
looking for a customized experience for a running team, friends/family reunion, Honeymoon, a work retreat, or a super epic birthday party?
Runcation Travel is now pleased to offer custom and private groups for running trips. There is nothing like spending a week traveling, exploring, and running together in amazing locations to provide an unforgettable group experience. Whether it's finding maximal runnable trails for high altitude training, indulging in top spas, or hitting the highest peaks, let us know your dream and fill out the form below!
We create customized trail running itineraries and guided and self-guided running vacations for groups: for coaches, running teams, brands, companies, families, and friends. Some of our current destinations available for custom running trips include the Italian Dolomites, Chamonix and Mont Blanc, Patagonia Argentina + Chile, Slovenia, Spain, Peru, California, and more.
Suggested Timelines for custom trip requests
We suggest reaching out ~1 year in advance of your trip, especially if it involves a larger group requiring a private guide and staying in mountain huts such as on the Tour du Mont Blanc or running hut to hut in the Dolomites (these sell out fast!). For other types of guided trips or for custom self-guided tours, we can accept requests closer to the trip date, but further in advance is always preferred!
What type of Custom Running trips can we provide?
From adventurous to more luxurious, we create custom guided and self-guided running trips for groups of friends, running teams, and even honeymoons. We also arrange media trips for brands or work retreats for companies. We can also accommodate a mixture of hikers and runners in our custom running trips.
What size is required?
For our self-guided trips, it can be as small as 1-2 people. For pricing that compares to our group Runcations, we recommend a size of 8-14 people, but can also arrange custom guided and self-guided running holidays for smaller groups.

““This trip exceeded our expectations on every level. All of the accommodations booked by Runcation were great. We had a good mix of hotel and refuge/hut stays, and they were all very comfortable. Some were quirkier than others, but it was all part of the charm. They were all clean and had warm showers, so it beat camping by a long shot. We were also very grateful for the luggage transfers, which all worked flawlessly. It was SO NICE to only carry a daypack each day. We did a self-guided trip, which meant that Runcation provided us with a brief description of each day’s trek along with the GAIX track for each day. It was perfect for the style of trek/travel that we like to do. When paired with a book about the Tour du Mont Blanc, we had all the info we needed. Runcation did the heavy lifting on the logistics which meant that we could just enjoy the trails, scenery, and food :-) We would definitely book with Runcation again.””
What’s a better birthday than running hut to hut with your friends in the Dolomites?
“The Dolomites Runcation trip was everything I could want in a vacation: stunning nature, fun & challenging activities, delicious local cuisine, awesome travel companions, & zero logistical headaches. The Runcation team executed the trip flawlessly allowing me to enjoy the trip from beginning to end without sweating any details. Thank you Runcation for helping me fall in love with the Dolomites. I am already fantasizing about my next Runcation destination!”
“I traveled on a Hut-to-Hut Dolomites Runcation in July 2022 and it was truly amazing. We traveled with a group of 8 hikers/runners. As a consistent runner living in a very flat part of the world, the mountainous terrain was hard to train for and was certainly a technical challenge, but our guide led us through an incredible well-paced run/hike that met our experience-level and was incredible. Runcation and our knowledgeable/ skilled/ friendly Italian guides made sure that all of our logistics were accounted for and went smoothly (luggage transport, route, lodging, meals). This meant we could really focus on the journey from hut to hut (the rifugios were pretty luxurious “huts”!) and enjoy every minute along the way. The terrain and route and landscapes were truly unbelievable. Highly recommend!!”
