EcoTrail Volunteers: The Experience of an Environmentally Responsible Sporting Event
Every year, we are looking for volunteers who would like to help us so that we can offer hikers and Nordic walkers a high-quality event.
With their smiles, dedication, and kindness, the volunteers are one of the cornerstones of our event.
We care deeply about the men and women who join us on this EcoTrail Funchal adventure, and we are committed to providing them with the best possible conditions (meals, etc.). Why not try volunteering in 2026?

Our volunteers talk about their experience
Chantal, who has been committed to our cause since 2013:
My fondest memory goes back to my first time participating in the race, when I was at the finish line. The runners were very friendly, warmly thanking the volunteers and the organizers. They put their fatigue aside and tell us how they feel. EcoTrail is a well-run event, with organizers who are approachable and attentive to their volunteers.
Steven, who has been with us since 2010:
The volunteers and the EcoTrail organization are like a second family to me, and that’s what makes me want to come back every year. The atmosphere is great, and in five years, I’ve only got good memories!
André - Portfolio Manager, with us since 2010:
Since I’m retired and have plenty of free time, I decided to volunteer for the EcoTrail eight years ago. The friendliness and helpfulness of the support team are what keep me coming back every year. Plus, I’ve gained a lot of experience, which allows me to play a key role in the organization. You don’t have to be an athlete to volunteer for this event, so don’t hesitate to join in—you’ll meet some fantastic people!
