Feedback from our 2023 Madeira Campers

"Trail Camp Madeira was amazing! I was so excited to get out on some trails above the clouds based on photos and videos I had seen, and it 100% lived up to it! Beautiful trails, stunning views, and a wonderful group of fellow Campers, guides, and of course the T&R staff. Thanks for a fantastic week!"

"This was my first Trails and Roots Camp but after the welcome snacks I already felt at home and knew it would be a great week. The runs and views were amazing, and the Trails & Roots team are so knowledgeable and welcoming. This was so much more than a running trip - can’t wait to book for more adventures!"

"I have now completed two Trails and Roots Camps and thoroughly enjoyed them both. It’s an immense privilege to join a small group of like minded people from across the world, of many different backgrounds, ages and with widely different experiences. We all have a shared love for the trails and despite differences in pace and ability, we are able to enjoy time together on the trails and back at the beautiful property that is home for the week. The food is incredible - so many new and interesting foods and ideas that I might not manage to replicate, but give me new experiences!"

"Exploring Madeira with Trails and Roots was one of the best trips I have ever taken. As if the beautiful trails weren't enough, returning back to our Quinta to have an amazing lunch waiting for us and relaxing between other activites such as yoga or a nutrition workshop were the perfect ways to recover. So grateful for this experience with such an amazing group of people in such a beautiful place. Can't wait for the next Camp!" 


"Everything was exceptional. All of the team were so relaxed and just as happy to be there as all of the group. The whole Camp had such a relaxed and welcoming feeling."

"Trails & Roots Camp is a truly special and unique experience"
