Our guided walking tours of the Lake District and Northumberland will immerse you in the sublime majesty of the countryside of the north of England. Enjoy the freedom of the road less travelled, the culture and heritage of our National Trails. After climbing Helvellyn or Catbells in the Lake District, and ticking off a few Wainwrights, you can relax by the calming waters of Buttermere or Windermere. And the end of each day, you’ll be glad to rest your legs in our wonderful English pubs and hand-picked hotels every evening. In Northumberland you will visit incredible castles, namely Warkworth and Chillingham, explore an iconic coastline and even have the opportunity for a dip in the River Tweed.
Step back in time on one of our idyllic walks through the magnificent Lake District or journey to Northumberland to discover a truly unspoiled corner of England which is steeped in rich history, varied natural landscapes, beautiful coastal vistas, ancient, wild animals, and haunted castles. These walking tours are the perfect way to discover England at its finest, so whether you are travelling on your own or with your friends or family, enjoy these beautiful trails with our expert guides.
Our tours are rated 97% excellent, just take a look at our Trip Advisor page, and are the perfect balance of active travel and relaxation.
We take all the hassle out of walking by including all luggage transfers, organising and booking all accommodation, providing maps, GPS instructions, and recommending incredible iconic palaces, castles, estates, ancient sites and more to visit along the way. Walk through the hills (fells), moors and alongside the lakes, rivers and streams, into our wonderful small villages and market towns which criss-cross the stunning landscapes.
If you are looking for more gently rolling hills, you can walk the Cotswold Way or the Ridgeway on our self-guided tours, while you can get to know like minded walkers on our guided holidays, exploring the richly varied landscapes of Cornwall and the South Coast of England.
We also offer private tours so you can create a bespoke itinerary for you and your group.
Our walking holidays are designed to be completely relaxing. Travel to the Lake District by train to the start the walking tours, or leave your car in secure parking – we will arrange transport back to your car at the end of the tour. We also offer a range and accommodation options, both pre and post tour so you can guarantee to start your tour refreshed and go home invigorated. We begin our tours, in or close to the Lake District which is an hour and a half north of Manchester.
