About EuroTrail Overland
Learn about EuroTrail Overland’s mission to revolutionize 4×4 overland adventures in Europe.
I was itching to explore the world. My Vision? Overland travel.
In my early twenties, I was itching to explore the world, but not in the traditional backpacking-through-Asia style. My vision? Overland travel. I set a bold goal: within five years, circumnavigate the globe. And so, the journey began.
My first challenge? To traverse from the Netherlands to Greece and back, predominantly off-road. However, upon returning home, I realized I’d only covered a mere 20% of off-road routes due to the lack of accurate guidance. This setback sparked a mission: to revolutionize European overlanding, to open up the continent’s hidden trails and uncharted territories. The foundation of Adventurising Europe laid.
In 2018, this mission spurred the inception of Going Limbo, which initially focused on making off-road motorcycle adventures accessible across Europe.
Fast forward to 2024, and EuroTrail Overland was born from the same ethos, aiming to democratize 4×4 overland travel throughout Europe. Scroll down to discover how we’re making this vision a reality.
