We loved our walk through the Tuscan hills and gorgeous old towns. It was great to have our bags ready at each hotel and to not have to worry about where we were going to stay.

Via Francigena: Best of Tuscany

About 1/2 of the walking legs were too far. I think 6 to 8 miles per day is optimum. Two of the stays were not hotels but rather rooms with no reception. I prefer a small hotel with a receptionist.

Via Francigena: Orvieto to Rome

We had the good fortune to arrive the week after Easter following the rainy spring. The whole area was covered in a stunning array of wildflowers. The hikes were great - not too much or too little and the accommodations just perfect!

Ronda and the Sierra de Grazalem...

Great selection of accommodation, good accompanying notes, great support - it was brill but the highlight was the confidence we had after a couple of days that our luggage was there in really well chosen accommodation.

Portuguese Camino - Porto to Tui

We recently completed 6 days of walking along the Dale's Way path in the Yorkshire Dales area of Great Britain and they did a brilliant job making all the arrangements. There were a few glitches with the mobile App that was set up for our trip but with the map backups there was no real issue. The accommodations were all good to great, and it should be noted that if you don't heed their advice and book a table for dinner in certain restaurants, there won't be a table available. They did everything except guarantee the weather. Also note that if you're booked into the Winderemere Park Hotel in Windermere at the end of the Dales Way walk, it is a fair climb up the hill from Bowness, but there is a regular bus route that runs along the road. That would have been better than another uphill walk, and good information to have. All-in-all, a great trip and we were extremely happy with both Walkers Britain, and ourselves for making the trip.

They did a great job in preparing us for our 6 day / last 100km trek on the Camino de Santiago. Information was timely and accurate. Lodging was very good as were the dinners/breakfasts each day.

Europe Hiking Tours

Highlights of Europe hiking tours

  • Hike the stunning Romsdalseggen Ridge, a seven to eight-hour hike with stunning views over some of the best fjords in Norway and passing near breathtaking waterfalls.
  • Explore underrated countries such as Montenegro and Bosnia Herzegovina. The famous Trebevič Peak Trail is a challenging route ideal for those wanting to explore the mountainous surroundings of Sarajevo, while the Black Lake Trail in Montenegro is ideal for those new to this activity.
  • Embark on a journey on the Scottish highlands to fully immerse yourself in the unspoiled local nature while visiting ancient sites such as Urquhart Castle.
  • See the Cinque Terre, five picturesque Italian towns facing the Mediterranean Sea known for the bright colors of the houses. Hike from one town to the next on the ancient road, giving you the best view over the region’s high cliffs. Some trails, such as the Manarola - Corniglia route, are ideal for expert hikers, while others, such as the Manarola - Riomaggiore trail, are perfect for those who are just starting. These are some of the best hiking tours in Europe.
  • Hike the Tatra Mountains in the fall to see one of the best foliage in Europe, and opt for the difficult Orla Perć if you’re up for a challenge.

Travel tips for hiking tours in Europe

  • If you decide to opt for a hike in the Romsdalseggen Ridge, plan your trip to land between July and September, as the remaining months tend to be dangerous due to unfavorable weather conditions.
  • When hiking in the summer, don’t forget that some mountains in Europe go well beyond 4,000 meters high, meaning that you will need warm clothes despite the lowland summer temperatures.
  • Before your Europe hiking tour, research your trail, write down the numbers to call in case of emergency (in most places in Europe, it is 112), and let someone know where you’re heading.
  • Always check the weather before embarking on your European hiking tour as, especially in northern countries, a sunny day can often turn into a massive storm in a matter of minutes.
  • Watch for hunting signs in France, written as chasseurs or ‘chasse garden’ and indicating a hunting area.
