Walking Holidays in the Alps

For majestic scenery, rewarding mountain ascents and delicious cuisine in quaint towns, nothing compares to an exhilarating walking holiday in the Alps. With diverse flora and fauna, interesting wildlife sightings and plenty of opportunities to wander through pine forests and old way-marked trails, our wide range of walking holidays in the Alps are perfect for every walking and hiking enthusiast.

On foot, discover the French Alps crevasse-scarred glaciers, crystal clear lakes and feast your eyes on the highest peak in the Alps, Mont Blanc, (or “La Dame Blanche”, to the French) from the summit of Aiguillette des Houches (2285m-7500ft).

While walking in the Alps you can also cross the border into to Switzerland. On this part of the route you can hike past wildflower meadows with views of the Trient Glacier towards the chocolate-box Alpine towns of Martigny and Orsières with formidable mountain panoramas as your backdrop.

For a slower pace, why not trek in the Julian Alps in Slovenia, to see the towering Mount Špik and beautiful Higher Falls. On our Slovenia Alps trip, you can also explore the Karavanke Mountain Range and head off the beaten track to hike to the peak of Golica (1836m) for a truly unforgettable view.

An amazing adventure to the top of Africa on a much less crowded route than Lemosho.
This was my first high altitude experience, and the professionalism of the leader and the assistant guides in making sure that the group were well looked after was second to none.

Elliott Brown Kilimanjaro Climb Rongai Route

Mixed walks along the stunning French Riviera coastline coupled with visits to some of the most famous gardens in the region. Opportunity to learn about the history of the area and a must for garden lovers. Warm enough to swim in peaceful Med sea in October. Menton, the resort were stayed throughout our trip, retains the atmosphere of genteel aristocratic tourism. The Italian influence is strong as the town is just a few kilometres from the Italian border. Most of the restaurants serve Italian food.
