Hiking vacations
For centuries people have travelled by foot whether it is was for a pilgrimage, to visit friends or family on the other side of a mountain, or simply to be at one with nature. Walking vacations have had a revival over the last decade and it's this combination of expertise and excitement about walking as a form of relaxation that has opened a whole new walking world for the 21st century, and yet one that will almost always take you right back in time.
