Trail running

Trail running on Faial is a fun way to get to know the island. The 10 Volcanoes Trail is arguably the best medium distance trail running route on Faial and is actually part of the Azores Trail Run race. This trail offers an easy way to sight-see for those who carry their running shoes with them wherever they go. During the tour, we will have the chance to learn about the nature and culture of the island while we run. Our trail runner guide will set the right pace so everyone feels comfortable during the adventure. Depending on the weather, there will be some time to relax and possibly swim when we finish.

Although the 10 Volcanoes Trail is a great choice for trail running in Faial, we understand that it might be too challenging or just might not be what you’re looking for. Our tours are private, so please feel free to contact us if you’re looking for a shorter trail or a different running route. We are happy to design a different trail running option. Check out our last adventure with Mirna Valerio and her team, “Mirnavator”.
