We offer ecotourism trail running tours in unique and important ecosystems around the world. We facilitate expeditions from the mountains to the rainforest, exploring important landscapes and biodiversity, and learning about local efforts to conserve nature.

Our mission: To create meaningful movement experiences around the world that support local and Indigenous communities and highlight community-based conservation. 

Our vision: To support personal transformation and global change through the community-based ecotourism movement. 

Our values: 
Ecotourism: a mode of responsible travel to natural areas to learn about and appreciate nature. It often contributes to conservation efforts and supports the wellbeing of local organizations or local individuals managing natural resources.

Community-based tourism: visiting tourism projects led and managed by Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs). IPLCs control the management of these tourism experiences and reap the benefits of it to strengthen their self-governance, economic alternatives, environmental initiatives, and livelihoods. 

Community-based conservation areas (CCA): Community-based or community-managed conservation is the management and protection of natural resources and biodiversity by, for, and with local communities. CCAs as a movement are a response to exclusionary conservation projects, which in some cases have forced communities off of heritage or ancestral lands. Recent research supports CCAs and Indigenous Lands as highly effective in conserving nature. 

Cross-cultural adventure: bringing travelers into the present moment through encouraging thoughtful play and movement in the world. Experiencing new places and cosmovision allows travelers to discover themselves and rejuvenate their sense of presence.
