9 Top walking adventures for 2022

If you've exhausted your local walking trails and want to stretch your legs in foreign lands, our small group hiking tours will lead you beyond the usual tourist routes to reveal spectacular views and unspoiled natural landscapes.

 

Amalfi Coast Walking

Take a break and transport yourself to Italy's laid-back Amalfi Coast in 2022. Feel as if you've died and gone to heaven on the spectacular 'Walk of the Gods' overlooking Capri and the Bay of Salerno; coves of turquoise water sparkle like jewels in the warm sunshine, and verdant green terraces tumble towards quaint fishing villages below. The relaxed walking pace will give you plenty of time to explore these peaceful trails and sample the delicious local wine and homemade cuisine at our family-run agriturismo accommodation.

Walking in Madeira

Navigate your way along mossy trails following an ancient network of levada channels flowing through the green laurel forests of Madeira. This Portuguese island is a walker's paradise; wander amongst lush valleys, venture through tunnels cut into the cliffs and feel the fresh wind on your face as you stroll along high coastal trails. Misty clouds swirl in the forested canyons below, and views stretch across jagged pinnacles from the island's summit, Pico Ruivo.

Hidden Trails of Tuscany, Italy

Discover the lesser-known sierras of the Garfagnana Valley on this rural walking holiday in the heart of Tuscany, Italy. Dense forest cloaks the jagged hillsides and tranquil turquoise-coloured lakes glimmer in the sunlight. Hike to the peak of Monte Prado, Tuscany's highest at over 2000 metres, and trek through lush vineyards in the countryside. Explore the nearby renaissance city of Lucca and immerse yourself in the local way of life with accommodation at a traditional agriturismo.

Walks and Coastal Towns of Croatia

A web of timber boardwalks weaves around sixteen shimmering pools of topaz water in Croatia's Plitvice National Park. This lush oasis is adorned with pearly white limestone cliffs, fizzing waterfalls and a sheer veil of water vapour glistening in the sunshine. On our 14km walk, scenic views reveal lakes enveloped by pine forests and pathways lined with a rainbow of bright orchids, blushing cyclamen and candy-pink smoke tree blossom.

Mount Toubkal

For a 2022 walking holiday with a difference, join our Mount Toubkal trek to the highest point in North Africa. Meander along rocky mule trails and through deserted valleys as you ascend towards the snowline above. You may feel your heart rate rise as the terrain becomes challenging in places, but the effort will be more than worthwhile for the summit views that extend over Morocco's High Atlas Mountains, the plains of Marrakech and the Sahara Desert.

Inca Trail Trek

Lose yourself in glistening cloud forest and towering mountain valleys on the iconic Inca Trail trek in Peru. The bright sunshine illuminates the emerald green hillsides of the Andes Mountains by day, and the pollution-free sky reveals a dazzling display of stars and planets at night. After three days of hiking, feel your skin tingle with excitement as you wander through the Gate of the Sun and see the lush green terraces and ancient Machu Picchu temples of this sacred Lost City for the first time.

Kilimanjaro - Lemosho Trek

Set your sights high with a challenging hike up Kilimanjaro on our ten-day walking trip. Accompanied by an expert local tour leader, we trek across grassy steppes and volcanic lava fields on the scenic Lemosho route. Rising under cover of darkness, we follow a winding trail of bright head torches leading towards the summit, and, as the sun warms the land, we clamber over the crater rim and take in magnificent views from the highest point in Africa.

Camino de Santiago, Spain

Make 2022 the year you embark on the 155km spiritual pilgrimage along the Camino-Frances trail in Spain. A tapestry of green countryside peppered with timeworn medieval villages stretches as far as the eyes can see, and stone carved scallop shells mark the way towards your final destination; Santiago Cathedral. Each night we'll stay in a friendly family-run hotel and feast on delicious homemade food before setting off on another day of astonishing discovery by foot.

Walking in Albania

Feel a world away from everyday life as you hike beyond the usual tourist trails to the unspoiled alpine valleys of Albania. Miles of uncharted walking routes lead us into the heart of this wild landscape, where we'll find emerald green lakes, rustic highland villages, and the snow-capped peaks of the 'Accursed Mountains'. Wildflowers sway in the breeze, and local shepherds tend to their herds as we wander along the deserted back roads of this moderate graded walking retreat.
