TrailCrew Trails
You run. We handle the rest.
For running groups, training groups and groups of friends who want to run a beautiful trail without worrying about the route, the support or the logistics. From a guided group run to support along the way at your ultra or club event. We take care of that.
Build your trailA fully supported trail, all for you.
We map out the route, provide guidance and set up a basecamp at the start, finish and/or along the way. An easy group run or a tough long trail of thirty-plus kilometres: we tailor it to your group and your ambition.

From first taste to long trail.
Guided trail run
A beautiful route with guidance and a drink afterwards. Ideal for introducing the group to trails.
Long trail with support
Longer distances with support along the way and a basecamp at the start and finish.
Support at your ultra or event
Is your group running an ultra or your own event? Then I arrange supplies along the way, aid stations and pacing if desired.
The finest terrain in the region.
Think of the Sallandse Heuvelrug, the Lutterzand, the Buurserzand or the hills of the Teutoburgerwald: across the eastern Netherlands and just over the border we know the finest routes. But if you already have a location or route in mind, for a training weekend for example, we simply build on that.
Frequently asked questions
For running groups, good to know.
How long and tough can the trails be?
From a brisk group run of 10 km to a long trail of 30+ km. We choose the profile together, flat and fast or with serious climbing. Challenging is fine, but we keep it responsible.
Do we set the pace and distance ourselves?
Yes. You tell us what you are after, an easy long run or a hard effort, and we tailor the route, distance and refreshments to it. If you already have a route or location in mind, we will of course take that into account.
Can you make a technical or hilly route?
Absolutely. Towards the Lutterzand and especially the Teutoburgerwald there is real singletrack, longer climbs and some elevation. We tailor the technical difficulty to the wishes and level of the group.
How does refreshment work on the longer distances?
Mobile refreshments along the way with water, sports drink and food, plus first aid and your bags/dry clothes at the basecamp. On long trails we plan extra aid points.
What if our levels differ?
No problem. We can run with pace groups, a guide per group, or a route with a shorter and longer loop. That way nobody has to wait or drop out.
What does it cost?
We work with tailor-made proposals, because every group and distance is different. Build your trail using the configurator and we will send a fitting, no-obligation proposal with a clear price.
Where do you run?
Across the eastern Netherlands and the German border region: Sallandse Heuvelrug, Lutterzand, Buurserzand and the Teutoburgerwald. If you want real climbing and length, we head towards the 'Teuto'.
Can you support a training weekend?
Yes. Multiple sessions, route build-up across the days, refreshments and a fixed basecamp to fall back on. Ideal for groups working towards a goal or with a training weekend planned.
Can I cancel or reschedule free of charge?
Free up to 14 days in advance. After that we charge part of the preparation cost (up to 7 days before 50%, after that the full amount). In extreme weather we always reschedule free of charge.
How do we make a request?
Through "Build your trail" you pass on your wishes (distance, region, pace). You are not committed to anything. We reply within one working day with a proposal.
