General information:
A moderate upper 1 boot level walk, largely on semi-shaded coastal paths. The few short ascents afford spectacular views.
Walking boots are essential.
It is a Headwater-employed guide who leads this holiday, groups of typically 4 - 8 people on each tour date. Some paths will take us along lovely coastal stretches, other days we will explore the pretty villages and vine-clad hillsides inland.
Please note that this holiday is unsuitable for children under 14 as it is a guided walking holiday.
Location:
Our 3* hotel on this holiday is located just a few kilometres from Le Lavandou. This guided walking week is a superb choice for people looking to spend time on the Cote d'Azur.
Who would this holiday appeal to?
Clients who would like a moderate walking holiday, accompanied by a guide and other like minded people.
Similar to which other holidays?
We believe this holiday is similar to our 'Secrets of Tenerife walk', the 'Secrets of Andalucia' walk, and our 'Undiscovered Mallorca walk', in terms of the level of guided walking.
If we were to compare in terms of walking level (but not type of holiday) we would also say this holiday is similar to the: 'Landscapes of Lesbos walk' and 'Volterra to San Gimignano'
Possibility of non-standard departures?
This holiday departs selected Sundays from May to September. Non standard dates are not possible as this is a guided holiday.
**Due to popular demand we have secured one more spring departure for this holiday- The 18th May. Please see our prices & booking panel for details.**
