Completely surpassed my expectations, was an utterly magical week in Morocco - made some beautiful memories and friendships. It was my first time travelling solo, so needless to say I was a little nervous but I couldn’t have felt more supported and been surrounded by a friendlier and kinder group of people. The Trail Pursuit team were incredible from start to finish, answering my many questions pre-booking to planning one of the funnest weeks away. If you’re toying with going away with them - go for it! You won’t regret it!

I’ve just got back from the Morocco trip and what can I say… such an amazing trip with the most incredible people. Ed made everything so smooth with all activities thoroughly planned and prepped for. The accommodation was perfect, so relaxed (a real nice retreat after a long day of surfing, hiking, or running). I can’t recommend TP enough! Jump in!

Laura Brooks
Joined the Trail Pursuit events in the Lake District, Brecon Brecon, and most recently Norway. Great events, fantastic experiences, and met some awesome people there. Fully recommend to anyone who loves adventure!
Gavin Burns
Back in June 2022 I had the privilege of being part of the first 'team' to live the Norway experience. Having found the courage to travel by myself, I found it utterly fantastic from start to finish. Yes, it had its moments of challenge but this helped to make it such an amazing experience. Such a stunning location and well thought out loop above/within the majestic fjord. One of the best experiences I've ever had! As for the 'team' they were all such amazing people and it was a pleasure to share the experience with them, thank you!
