The United Kingdom is the quintessential destination for
rambling, hiking and walking holidays and boasts some very best scenery,
picturesque villages, pleasant strolls and exhilarating treks anywhere in the
world.
From the easiest of ambles, to sightseeing strolls taking in
our natural heritage and history, good day hikes in moorland and hill country
to some of the most challenging guided mountain walks anywhere in the world,
you'll find it here.
Given the
abundance of possible walks, a comprehensive list would be too long to publish,
but here are some suggestions to whet your appetite:
The Cornish
Coastal Path offers breathtaking scenery encompassing some of the most
beautiful coastal scenery in Britain. The mild climate makes walking possible
all year round. The ever changing views include fishing villages, sheer cliffs,
pristine beaches and turquoise seas enabling you to have an experience that
will be treasured for a lifetime.
The Jurassic
Coast Path
The Jurassic
Coast Path includes some of the most dramatic and beautiful scenery along the
South West Coast Path from the charming port of Lyme Regis to the stunning
sands of Studland Heath and the bustling port of Poole.
The South
Downs Way
The rolling
countryside of the South Downs has some of the finest views in Britain. The 102
mile National Trail takes you from Winchester, the first capital of England
with it's majestic cathedral to the spectacular white chalk cliffs of
Eastbourne and Beachy Head. The way follows for the most part the ridge of the
South Downs making this trail a comfortable introduction to long distance
walking.
The Thames
Path
The Thames
Path follows Britain's best known river from it's source in Gloucestershire. It
meanders through some of England's most beautiful countryside embellished with
lovely towns and villages. The river flows past locks and under magnificent
bridges to the grand city of Oxford.
This is one
of Britain's most famous walks. The author Alfred Wainwright devised the route
and it has been a passionate quest for many thousands of walkers who take in
the outstanding beauty and variety that the Coast To Coast Path offers.
Hadrian's
Wall
The Unesco
World Heritage site of Hadrian's Wall is a majestic and staggering monument to
Roman ingenuity, stretching from the vibrant and proud city of
Newcastle-Upon-Tyne to the peaceful solitude of the Solway Firth via historic
Carlisle. Hadrian's Wall passes through the beautiful and unique Northumberland
National Park and is littered with Roman turrets, temples and forts including
outstanding Vindolanda and Housesteads.
The Cotswold
Way
The Cotswold
Way National Trail runs for just over
100 miles from Chipping Campden to Bath through the high country of the
Cotswolds; an improbably attractive quintessentially English countryside of
limestone hills dotted with attractive well preserved picture-book villages of
honey-coloured stone.
Britain is the ultimate walking destination. I would be delighted to
organize an unforgettable trip for your group.
