Active holidays for everyone

Walking holidays are a great way to get under the skin of the destination you are visiting. Everything happens at your own pace and you have plenty of time to notice the little things you might not normally notice. It might be a flower, a view or a meal that had just slipped by in the subconscious, but when you're out on the walking trail and all you have to do is walk and enjoy life, it's just more intense than usual.Plus, being active on holiday is healthy and good for your body, so all in all, a walking holiday is a great way to experience the world. It can be difficult to know what it takes to go on a walking holiday, so in the following we have tried to outline the considerations you should make when going on a walking holiday.

Hi, I'm Nanna. I work at Bering Travel as a Travel Consultant, and have just returned from La Palma. I was there to test the trip and see if there could be any improvements or the like. At the same time, I have also gained a lot of good knowledge that we can use when you have questions about the trip. I have made a logbook of the trip, so you can get a better understanding of this journey*.

Sri Lanka is an amazing travel destination in Asia. In April 2024, myself and a few of my good colleagues went there to explore the country and to put together some tours that are perfect for those who also want to be active on their holidays. I've collected some of our experiences from the trip in this travel diary. I hope you'll find inspiration and advice here if you're thinking about travelling to Sri Lanka yourself.

It is impossible to plan a trip based on the weather, which is why we recommend being prepared for a bit of everything. We sometimes experience that destinations in Europe become warmer, colder, or wetter than usual for the season. Therefore, we recommend everyone to read this document about which precautions to take in various weather situations. Ultimately, it is you as a hiker or cyclist who must ensure that you get safely through each stage of your journey.

Once again, I had the opportunity to lace up my hiking boots and go on an amazing hiking trip - this time to Mallorca and this time with my mum. In the spring I went on the Wicklow Way in Ireland as a solo traveller, and although it was amazing, I was also looking forward to sharing this experience with someone else. Normally, I prefer hiking in "colder" places like Scotland, Ireland and the Faroe Islands - the hottest place I've hiked is probably Zion National Park in the USA in the spring of 2016, so I was excited about the trip to Mallorca, which is also known to be on the hot side. As I said, I was travelling with my mum. My mum is 57 years old and has never been on a walking holiday before. She is in generally good shape, works out a couple of times a week and likes to go for long walks, so I was curious to see what she would say about a walking holiday, which can be physically challenging in many ways. Fortunately, it all went really well and my mum thought it was a great experience that she would definitely want to repeat.
