Trail Running Magazine

Animals, nature & the magic of connection on the trails

The latest edition of Trailrunning Magazine is ready—and what a great start! The cover features a beautiful photo of a dog and its owner, the ultimate symbol of the unique bond between humans, animals, and mountains. This issue is entirely dedicated to animals and the special role they play in our sport. Are you an animal lover, or do you know someone who is? Then you absolutely can't miss this issue.

🐾 What you'll find in this edition

• In this edition of Trailrunning Magazine, we bring you back to the essence of trail running: adventure, freedom, and stories that go beyond just kilometers.

• You'll read about Le Pilgrimage, a unique hike through the Écrins Massif. Here, the combination of traveling together, mountain huts, and shared meals is just as important as the running itself. Closer to home, we follow trail runners in the wintry Ardennes, and Chris shares a delicious culinary trail in the Veluwe region.

• We also speak with Koen de Kort, who swapped professional cycling for rugged trails and ultra races. You'll also find a practical emergency plan for those with just six weeks left before a trail, ultra, or marathon, and we delve into the influence of hormones on performance and training in women.

• But with 100+ pages of trail inspiration, that's far from all! How about a crash course in photography, for example, where Gijs Ferkranus shares his best tips for combining movement, light, and landscape into powerful trail photos. Even without a professional camera!

🎒 Perfect for

• Trail runners who like to be close to nature
• Anyone who walks, trains or wants to start with animals
• Lovers of stories about connection, adventure and rugged landscapes
• Readers who love practical tips and beautiful trail stories
