We're making a Swiss Trail Running Guidebook this summer. Follow the process here!

Generally, we don’t stop for heavy lunches during a trail running day. Our guides will purchase a variety of snacks to share out at the start of the day. We’ll do our best to match the desires of the group with what’s available locally, but many brands familiar to trail runners in other countries are not available in the Alps. We’ll have chocolate, nuts, chips, energy bars, and other foods along for us to choose from each day. If you have a specific brand that works well for you, we’d suggest you bring enough with you for the duration of the trip. We’ll also stop at huts and mountain inns, en route, if you find yourself in need of something more substantial, or would like a treat during the trail run.
