explore the world's greatest trails at a runner's pace
Fastpacking combines exploration, and joy of trail running with the spirit of lightweight backpacking, allowing adventurers to cover more ground and immerse themselves in the wilderness with minimal gear. This form of exploration was once reserved for those with extensive experience and the time to meticulously plan their journeys.
Until now...
At Fastpack Global, we're changing all that.
We specialise in curating fastpacking trips that cater to a range of abilities and interests, from serene forest trails to rugged mountain passes.

Our packs are designed for runners who are in good physical condition and have experience with long-distance running or hiking. It's important to be prepared for the physical demands of completing a typically long trek in a much shorter period.
Safety is our top priority. We provide pre-trip training recommendations and during the trip, experienced guides are with you at all times. We have predefined safety protocols, risk assessments including evacuation procedures in case of emergencies.
You will need reliable running kit suitable for various terrains, a hydration pack, weather-appropriate clothing, and possibly some camping gear, depending on the trip. We provide a detailed packing list with recommended brands that are tried and tested in similar conditions.
The cost typically includes all logistics from the starting point of the fastpack, guides, meals, accommodations, and transportation back to the starting point. It does not include personal kit, flights, travel insurance, or transportation to and from the fastpack's starting location.
We are committed to sustainable travel practices. We limit the size of our groups to reduce impact, practice "Leave No Trace" principles, and work closely with local communities to ensure that our activities support local conservation efforts.
Preparation involves physical training, familiarising yourself with the terrain and climate of the destination, and ensuring you have the necessary kit. We provide a training guide upon booking and recommend starting the physical preparation several months in advance.
While our standard trips are on fixed schedules, we offer customised options for private groups or individuals seeking a more tailored experience. Please contact us for more details on how we can accommodate your needs.
