Trail Run Trend, Sports That Presents Beautiful Views

JAKARTA - Tran trail run has been stealing attention in recent years. Not only as a sports choice, this activity has now become part of a healthy lifestyle rooted in proximity to nature. Trail run presents beautiful natural scenery, thus making runners excited to exercise.

This phenomenon inspires Avoskin, a local skincare brand from Yogyakarta, to go further through its latest initiation, namely the 2025 Avoskin Trail Run. Held in commemoration of International Environment Day, Avoskin Trail Run is not only present as a sporting event, but also as a collaborative space and sustainability celebration.

This trail run will be held in the cool area of Teras Merapi, Yogyakarta on Sunday, June 29, 2025. With a distance of 7.2 kilometers in the Fun Run category, this event is open to 300 runners from various parts of Indonesia. The participants, consisting of goal seekers and runners, will be invited to enjoy challenging and stunning running routes, along the Kalitalang and Klangon areas, until finally reaching the final line at Teras Merapi.

For Avoskin, the invitation to care for the body and earth cannot be separated from the comprehensive philosophy that combines the mind, body and environment. This is the basis for the experience they want to present in the 2025 Avoskin Trail Run.

"Avoskin believes that sustainability is not just a trend, but a way of life that must be interpreted and carried out together continuously," said Anugrah Pakerti, CEO of AVO Innovation Technology and Founder of Avoskin, from an official statement received by VOI on Tuesday, April 22.

"Through the Avoskin Trail Run, we want to create a space where the body, mind, and nature can be connected in harmony, unite body fitness, mental health, and environmental concern in an experience that can strengthen relations between humans and the earth, a celebration for our environment in a fun and meaningful way," he continued.

Yogyakarta was chosen not without reason. This city is not only known as a cultural center, but also has local values such as mutual cooperation and harmony with nature, which is in line with the spirit carried by Avoskin.

As a growing and developing brand in Yogyakarta, Avoskin wants to strengthen his local identity by creating a platform that not only voices the importance of protecting the earth, but also brings together communities from various backgrounds on joint missions.

Avoskin Trail Run 2025 is designed to be more than just a sporting event. Based on Mind, Body, and Environment philosophy, the experience offered is an invitation for:

1. Mind Raise awareness of the importance of maintaining mental health through activities that are integrated with nature.

2. Body Introducing a healthy lifestyle through running, improving physical fitness and a sense of togetherness.

3. Environment Grows concern for the environment with real actions that are environmentally friendly in every aspect of the event.

Along the route, participants will be presented with natural views typical of the foot of Mount Merapi, complete with iconic spots and fun games that spur enthusiasm. This event is managed by the My Race Sport Organizer, a professional team that has handled various trail runs in Indonesia.

"We believe that this event is not only for today, but will be a sustainable agenda that we will continue to hold in the years to come. A form of Avoskin's dedication in maintaining quality, building innovation, and continuing to move with nature," said Roostian Gamananda, Race Director of My Race Sport Organizer.

"The safety and comfort aspects of runners are our top priority. The committee is working closely with various local stakeholders and providing insurance for all participants, in order to ensure a safe and pleasant running experience," he added.

Arriving at the finish line, participants were not only greeted by a lively atmosphere, but also various interactive experiences. There are several interesting zones such as:

- Community Corner, dialogue space and sharing inspiration between participants.
