Inghams know a thing or two about walking holidays. After all, they’ve been taking customers on their favourite trails for over 90 years. Their flexible stay-and-walk holidays give you the freedom to do whatever you feel like all from one location. No set itineraries, just pick your base, unpack and explore.
Inghams handle everything – from getting you there and a place to stay, to sharing the inside track on their favourite walks. Plus, with local Destination Experts in many of the resorts you’re never short of local secrets or must-visit lunch spots.
WALK THE INGHAMS WAY
Inghams Walking is for people who love to holiday as much as they love to walk. But Inghams holidays aren’t like other point-to-point walking holidays – there’s no carrying gear as you hike to the next stop and no moving hotel every night. With travel, accommodation and transfers included, they offer ‘stay-and-walk’ holidays where guests can explore the resort and local area all from one base – and still be back at the hotel in time for dinner!
Stroll, hike or stride around the most beautiful parts of Europe while still enjoying everything else you love to do on holiday – from local cuisine to culture, walking and wellness.
Are you a walker who loves a challenge? Or do you prefer a gentle stroll with stunning scenery? No matter what your pace or preference, Inghams have the perfect walking holiday waiting for you.
CHOICE ALWAYS INCLUDED
Travel by plane or train and pick your base from Inghams’ handpicked collection of the best walking destinations and places to stay across Europe. Choose from over 75 resorts in eight countries: Andorra, Austria, France, Italy, Madeira, Slovenia, Switzerland and – new for 2025 – Norway.
Hike through the majestic Alps in places such as Zermatt in Switzerland, Seefeld in Austria, or Chamonix in France. Explore quaint mountain villages with an epic mountain backdrop in the Dolomites or serene lakes in Italy while indulging in world renowned cuisine. Discover Norway with its stunning Fjords and spectacular waterfalls or visit Madeira, famous for its garden blooms and levada walking trails.
Explore Slovenia‘s Lake Bled and Kranjska Gora for scenic, tranquil views. Or discover more and experience multiple destinations in one trip with a multi-centre holiday. You’ll be able to walk your way through a variety of cultures, sights and adventures – there’s so much to do and see, you’re spoilt for choice.
YOU SET THE PACE
You can walk as much or as little as you like on an Inghams stay-and-walk holiday. Many resorts offer the chance to join up to two exclusive guided day walks per week, led by an experienced local guide – and the cost is included in the price of your holiday. The guides share their inside knowledge on the local area and the hidden trails as well as their love for nature and respect for the local landscapes. You can choose from one easy-to-moderate walk and one more challenging option each week – or take on both! Starting and ending in your resort on the same day, there’s no need for heavy packs or overnight stays.
Prefer exploring by yourself on a self-guided walk? No problem. Inghams Destination Experts will point you in the direction of the best trails and recommend walks whatever your walking ability.
