Hiking adventures in Spain

Walking and hiking are an absolutely essential way of getting truly in touch with a landscape, and the only real way to get yourself truly off the beaten track, and far from the crowds. It’s a wonderful way to really experience a destination, and this is as true in Spain as it is anywhere.

And walking holidays in Spain are about so much more than gold-sand beaches and scrubby hillsides, even if you do have them in abundance. Whether you’re venturing on a hike into the lush valleys, soaring mountains and imposing massifs of the Pyrenees, or into the atmospheric hillsides near Seville, there’s always a picturesque town and a traditional tavern to rest your feet at the end of the day.

Hiking in Spain represents a chance to see the things that most tourists don’t, ancient monasteries clinging to rocky mountainsides, isolated fishing villages that cling onto generations-old traditions, hidden misty coves that are known only to the locals.

A walking or hiking holiday in Spain is about finding these hidden gems, these off the beaten track locations, and with a local guide, passionate about their home and the trails that wind through the hills, you’ll be sure to find the very best locations and the most thrilling walks.

You can relax and soak up the scenery, let go of worrying about directions or places to stay, and simply drink in the experience of exploration.

Where to experience walking holidays in Spain

Head to the islands of the Mediterranean for walking holidays in Menorca, Mallorca and Ibiza, where you’ll get far from the tourist trail to explore beautiful pine forests, fresh, clear streams and rugged mountain interiors, as well as abandoned beaches and dramatic headlands all surrounded by azure blue waters.

Alternatively, head out of Seville and experience the non-touristy countryside, where you’ll discover stunning villages perched on craggy hillsides and amazing panoramic views.

Of course, then there’s the majesty of the Spanish Pyrenees, where jaw-dropping, snow-capped mountains run down into fertile valleys and mountain villages dot the hiking trails.

Wherever you head for your walking holiday in Spain, one thing is guaranteed, you’ll create memories that last a lifetime.
