Quality remains after price is forgotten
Delicious food and easy to prepare! Not just for trails but really handy when camping or any general holiday where you want a delicious meal and don’t feel like cooking.
Trail Food meals
provided an absolute game changer. I love the variation
in meal options and for once enjoyed breakfast and
dinner.
Your meals have honestly revolutionised my trails experience – no more two-minute noodles and dry snacks only!
High nutritional value and filling. Taste great too.
On Rim of Africa, the Lentil Chicken curry and Mushroom Risotto were a welcome surprise, packed with intense flavour and a nice change while doing the thru-hike. The food prepared by Trailfoods can be crowned as delicious and nutritious, with good flavour as an added benefit.
Best trail food options ever! Well done. Just back from trail and tried all the meals. All delicious and no ultra-processed ingredients.
The Mushroom Risotto is my fav! It really is delicious and crazy that you can enjoy such awesome food out in the bush.
I could tell it was real, simple,
nutritious whole food without anything artificial. It really
kept me going.
Amazing food! Super tasty and potions are very well thought out. I can and do recommend to all my friends! It’s great quality food without all the preservatives and typical junk found in so many other products. Thanks so much!! You ladies are amazing!
In 2022 I ordered Trail Food meals for almost all my meals during the race and I must say it was superb. The best in dried meals and so easy to prepare out in the veld. In 2024 I just didn’t have the time to order meals prior to the race and had to rely on other options; and what a pity – I missed my Trail Food meals this year.
I’ve attempted several brands on a number of previous events but could
never stomach the dehydrated food. But Trail Food meals provided an absolute game changer.
Trail Food – hands down the best dehydrated camping meals I’ve tried. I love their simple all natural ingredients, their variety of tasty options that kept us well fuelled on a 10 day Drakensberg Grand Traverse and their high quality no leak packaging. Highly recommended.
I absolutely loved my food! If I really need to pick a few favorites – the beetroot hummus was a winner, the North African Couscous, the dahl. Everything was great! Thank you so much for making camping meals fantastic!
