Ramblers launches self-guided walking trips in six countries


Samantha Mayling


Ramblers Walking Holidays has introduced self-guided holidays to its expanding programme for 2023. The specialist operator offers 22


self-guided trips in six of its most popular destinations: the UK, Italy, France, Greece, Spain and Portugal. Clients can walk at their own


pace, and the prices include accommodation; door-to-door luggage transportation; maps; and route notes via an app. Clients


are offered 24-hour emergency support for “added peace of mind”. Kevin O’Regan, managing


director, said: “We have seen a significant increase in demand for self-guided holidays, where people still value the professional assistance of RWH with their trip planning, but want greater flexibility and independence than a guided small-group walking holiday with a fixed itinerary. “It’s a lovely way to explore the world independently on foot.”


Flexible start dates mean the


trips can begin on any day during the season and fit with individual plans. Flights and rail travel prices are not included, so clients can choose how to reach their destination and when to depart. In the UK, self-guided options include the West Highland Way and Wainwright’s Coast to Coast walk, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, as well as the opportunity to explore the

Lake District independently from RWH’s own property, Hassness Country House. European routes feature the


Tour du Mont Blanc – Chamonix to Chamonix; Via Francigena – From Lucca to Siena; and The Way of St James – Le Puy to Conques. Wainwrights Coast to Coast –


Complete Route (Self-Guided) starts from £1,895 and includes 15 nights’ B&B accommodation. ramblersholidays.co.uk
