Trail running adventure of our dreams

Classic Haute Route Self-Guided

Run the Alps helped me have the trail running adventure of my dreams with my wife. I reached out to several other travel companies, but they all catered to hikers who go at a slower pace or with itineraries that didn’t feel challenging. I do lots of trail running including ultramarathons and once I was in contact with the Run the Alps team it was like being in a foreign country and finding someone who speaks my language. They know what trail runners want and are capable of and they know the how to create the perfect itineraries and provide all the necessary resources. Their staff was attentive and friendly. The resources they provided were comprehensive. In particular they provided a GPS enabled app that was critical. It was like having a personal guide in our pocket. I also loved the variety of accommodations they booked for us that included rustic mountain huts and 4 star resort hotels. Overall I’d rate this trip 11 out of 10 stars!

Why

We wanted to see the heart of the alps, to see something new everyday and experience a variety of accommodations types including hotels and mountain huts.
