Activity

Each of our tours has been labelled with both an activity and a trip type, to help you understand how the trip works and what to expect.

Our tours come in many shapes and sizes! And in addition to things like the activity level (how easy or challenging the trip will be) and the accommodations level (what to expect from your accommodation) the actual format of the trip itself can vary a lot.

Activity

Walking

 

Inn to Inn Walking 

Walk from place-to-place changing accommodations each night, generally staying in staying in characterful B&B's, inns and guesthouses. 

Hut to Hut Walking 

Usually in remote mountain areas - walk from hut to hut (often known as "refuges"), changing accommodation each night. Baggage transfer is sometimes included but this is often not available on some days, due to the remote locations. Generally these are harder walks, and suited for experienced hikers in stunning alpine terrain.

Multi Centre Walking 

With a mix of loop and point-to-point walks, stay two or three nights in one place which offers the chance to slow down and really explore a destination. A more relaxed style of walking holiday as you could opt to skip a day's activity, but this format still offers a sense of journey.

Single Centre Walking 

Stay in one location throughout your trip, exploring the region with a mix of loop and point-to-point walks and with time to discover an area, town, or village in depth.
