Food & Wine Hiking Tours

Food & Wine Hiking Tours

Food & wine hiking tours combine the trail with the table. Walk through vineyards in Burgundy, Tuscany and the Douro Valley and alongside olive groves in Umbria. Wander the market towns of the Dordogne, knowing that genuinely excellent meals await you at the end of each day. Hike the Amalfi Coast and then take in sea vistas while you enjoy the day's catch and a limoncello spritz made from local lemons. Each day in Japan offers exotic culinary experiences at local family-run guesthouses. Macs Adventure has run these specialty routes for 20+ years.

Every trip includes hand-picked accommodation known for its food, with luggage transferred ahead so you arrive ready for dinner.

The Dordogne (or Le Perigod) is where the French go to indulge in regional classics like duck confit, salade perigourdine and pork enchaud, as well as delicacies like foie gras and margotin cheese. Sampling your way through the town's markets is the perfect way to taste the Dordogne's specialties.

Get to know our Food & Wine Hiking Tours

These routes are built around the idea that a great hiking day deserves a great meal at the end of it.

  • What specialties should I expect on a Tuscany hiking trip

    Chianti wines, fresh pasta, and olive oil straight from the groves you walk past. Meals are typically at family-run trattorias in the villages you stay in. And of course, a gelato during your evening walk is the perfect cap to any meal.

  • Where can I expand my culinary horizons

    Our Japan walking tours end each day in family-run guesthouses where traditional fare is served in several courses. In the Dordogne, rich regional delicacies are a just reward for an active day. In Spain, the tapas proudly reflect their regions local specialties and are best paired with a local vintage.

  • Where do I stay on a food and wine route

    Small hotels and guesthouses chosen partly for their kitchens, often family-run, in villages known for their food as much as their views. Some wine estates offer afternoon tastings with light bites.

  • What are your best food and wine hiking routes

    Tuscany, Chianti & Amalfi trails, the Douro Valley in Portugal, and our Dordogne and Burgundy trips in France are consistently our most-booked food and wine routes.

  • How fit do I need to be

    Most food and wine routes are Easy to Moderate - the focus is on the food and scenery rather than covering big daily mileage. There are more challenging trails in Japan and Switzerland where the local specialties are especially well-deserved!

  • Where are your best wine & hike regions?

    Our best wine & hike regions included Burgundy, the Dordogne and Provence in France, Tuscany, Umbria and Chianti in Italy, the Douro Valley in Portugal, the Moselle in Germany and Spain's Rioja Valley.
