Encounter Walking Holidays Ltd

The concept is simple, even when your requirements are not - we organise everything for you, leaving you free to walk the trail without worrying about the arrangements. You are in control Self-guided holidays give you the freedom to do this, to walk at your speed, to stop for breaks when you want and to explore the villages, towns and historical sights along the trail - all at your own pace and under your control. For those with free spirit the satisfaction of planning, walking and finding your way independently should not be understated - it's all part of the adventure. We walked all the routes We are walkers here too so we understand the real joy and satisfaction of discovering the trail for ourselves, finding our own way and experiencing the areas we pass through at our pace and under our own steam. Complete a Journey not a walk Self-guided walking holidays let you walk on from one place to another, moving on to a new overnight location at the end of each day's walk. With new locations, new people and new places to eat every night you experience an ongoing journey as you work your way along the trail. Discover and Encounter We research and provide the best guidebook literature and maps available for each walk. This is supplemented by a detailed, day by day, individual trail itinerary for your specific booking. You are in control with all the information you need to find your accommodation, work out where to eat during the day and be aware of what to see (and what to avoid). You will also be clear about the mileages, the grade of walking and the likely times to complete each section. You are informed, prepared and ready to discover the trail on your terms. Relax and Recharge Encounter Walking is the only company operating these trips who will go through the accommodation options with you and provide you with full details and websites to look at before you book.
