OUR STORY
We founded Pure Trails in 2019 with one ambition: to share a remarkable world with small groups of people who share a common passion—a love for trails, friendships, and adventure.
The idea was first conceived about 10 years ago when Charlie (our founder) was running along a glacial river in the Himalayas. Along the shoreline, he watched as locals washed their clothes in the mountain water. The smell of burning juniper from a nearby monastery, the ice-cold wisps of wind that blew up from the valleys below, and the towering mountains that surrounded him made him feel truly alive in this most remarkable place. Back then, trail running and traveling were not as popular as they are now, but why not? The idea of bringing small groups of like-minded people together to share these incredible moments—embarking on a journey rather than a race, with a real slice of culture added into the mix—sounded like a dream, and so it began.
We’ve been incredibly fortunate to explore the lengths and breadths of the world through our work, and the entire team behind Pure Trails has a deep knowledge and professional experience in the trail running and adventure travel industry.
Over the years, our Pure Trails community has continued to grow, and it gives us immense pleasure when a group of strangers becomes a family, with friendships forged over the course of our adventures.
So, here’s to making moments, sharing trails, and forging friendships as we journey together.
