Kavish Rathore, vice-president of operations at Moustache Escapes, shares, “Unlike conventional trails, this is a run on a mountain trail and is India’s first of its kind. Except for being over the age of 18, the only requirement for participation is enthusiasm. It will include both on-road and off-road travel, along with some yet-to-be explored corners and villages of the Parvati Valley. This, we feel, is just the beginning of an interest in mountainous adventure event in India.”

Participants will be welcomed with snacks and a briefing Oofos Canada session about the run’s itinerary. It will be followed by a bonfire dinner, where they’ll have the opportunity to socialise with other runners. “Participants will be given GPS coordinates to follow the trail. They will experience different weather conditions and terrain including running through the clouds in the mystical Parvati Valley,” he explains.

The organisation previously hosted a Forsyth trail run in Pachmarhi, Madhya Pradesh, which drew 50 participants from across the country.
