Walking Tours Europe - Hiking Tours

Discover Europe

Locals have long known the secret to experiencing Europe’s gentle hills, soaring peaks, and sweeping coastlines: explore on foot. In a continent where civilization evolved along well-trod footpaths, mule trails, and Roman roads, walking and hiking is still the best way to encounter local life.

Whether you spend your morning ascending to an unforgettable vista overlooking the otherworldly Mont-Saint-Michel, happen upon the best meal you’ve ever eaten in a quaint fishing village on the Amalfi coast, or laze in the aroma of a flower-flecked field on the Croatian island of Brač, a hiking tour of Europe will enliven and engage your every sense.

Join Country Walkers and connect to the timeless beauty and inviting cultures of Europe, not only to acquire a better understanding of a far away place, but also to gain a sense of what can be discovered when we explore the world on a uniquely immersive and human level.
