Our Story
Trails Film is created by and for trail-loving communities. We are inspired by nature and culture and want to make an impact on the future of trails and our planet. We are in awe of the human spirit and all that is wild. To all of this, we dedicate our festival.
Trails Film is held every two years. This is the 2nd festival after the 2018 inaugural event which took place in Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Through rich cinematography, selected films explored themes including trail creation, adventure, spirituality, healing, and diversity in nature and culture.
