On our self-guided walking holidays we provide you with detailed directions so you're free to explore at your own pace.
7 nights, single centre
On single centre holidays you stay at one hotel. We provide a range of routes so you can mix and match levels to suit how you feel each day. These tours are ideal for parties where some would like to be active every day but others prefer time to relax.
Level: 3 Stretching
Our holidays are graded from 1 to 4, this is a level 3 holiday. Fitness is important on our level 3 routes as you can expect to be walking for 5-7 hours each day, including ascents/descents of up to 1000m. Compass reading skills and experience of mountain walking is important and you should have a reasonable head for heights. Some scrambling may be required, although not rock climbing.

REVIEWS
This was our 3rd or 4th trip with Headwater and the location and support was again excellent.
Mr Bruce, 26 Apr 2025
We thought this trip was value for money and was a successful introduction to using travel companies again after many years of not. We had a fabulous week in the Picos de Europa and would recommend this self guided trip. Jim at Hotel Torrecerrdo was amazing, he went above and beyond to make everything as easy as possible. the Headwater app was invaluable for the first two hiking days and we look forward to using your services again.

Excellent thank you

Lovely people at Headwater; easy to deal with. Great itinerary. Super hotel and staff in a lovely location. Super walks.
Woeful pre-trip notes.
Too reliant on app and e-mail.
App misleading in terms of walking time remaining but loved the breadcrumbs

Good for those who don't like walking in big groups but enjoy the security of local support and route guidance

Fantastic and iconic hiking country, with more ups and downs than a roller coasters, and flora and fauna to shout about. Even the storms are dramatic!
Hotel is friendly, comfortable and basic. You won't spend much time there, but when you do (and are not sleeping) you are enjoying gourmet food, chatting with friendly owners and staff in the bar, or just soaking in the scenery on the terrace.
