Walking choices

Easy walking holidays

To help you choose a holiday that best suits your level of fitness all our walking holidays are graded using our 'boot' system . On the individual holiday pages (and in our brochure) you'll see that we've marked each tour from 'Lower 1 boot' to 'Upper 3 boot' so that you know what level of activities to expect. You can also search for your required activity level in our holiday finder too.

Our 1-boot rating

These holidays follow gentle routes and are fine for even the most occasional walker, and there's no scrambling or dizzy heights. The longest day is typically 4-6 hours, with easy ascents up to 300m (1000 feet). View our 1-boot walks »

Our 2-boot rating

Following slightly more challenging routes, these holidays are best suited to someone who's used to walking all day - but you don't need to be specially fit or to have a head for heights (unless specified on the product page). The longest day is typically 5-6 hours, ascents up to 700m (2400 feet) and, perhaps, some occasional scrambling. View our 2-boot walks »

Our 3-boot rating

For our 3-boot tours you need to be a fairly regular walker, with a reasonably good head for heights. The longest day will be around 6-8 hours and can including up to 1000m (3300 feet) ascent. The routes may also include some scrambling (but not rock-climbing). Due to the nature of the walks, these holidays are not suitable for children under 12. View our 3-boot walks »
