Overview
Walking Tours of England & Scotland
For over two decades, English Lakeland Ramblers has specialized and excelled in providing walking and hiking tours of some of the most spectacular and idyllic countrysides of Scotland and England. Hiking vacations in England are in the exquisite Lake District and the charming Cotswolds. In Scotland, ramble through the Highlands and the islands off the northwest coast.
On Lake District walking and hiking tours, walking trips in the Cotswolds and walking and hiking vacations in Scotland's Highlands and the on Isles of Skye, Harris & Lewis in the Hebrides, local guides are unsurpassed in experience, knowledge and congeniality - and in the earnest desire to ensure that your walking and hiking trip meets, and exceeds, your expectations.
Lake District Hiking Trips
Lake District walking tours are offered both as single-hotel based and in an inn-to-inn format. On these guided walking trips you will enjoy invigoratingly fresh air, peaceful waters, emerald meadows dotted with sheep, and heather-clad hillsides. You are guided on these seven- and eight-day tours on robust walks and hikes across vales and hills. Sightseeing by minibus rounds out an appreciation of Lake District history and culture.
Cotswolds Hiking Tours
Cotswolds walking tours feature lodging in the heart of this enchanting region. The superbly scenic countryside of rolling meadows and beech forests lends itself to the gentlest series of walks. Steeped in history, the tiny Cotswolds villages of honey-colored limestone with thatched cottages cluster around spired churches.
Scotland Walking Trips
In the north and west of Scotland lie the moody mountains of the Highlands, Celtic mists and legends, heather-clad hills and sparkling lochs, and a unique mixture of scenic splendor and profound tranquility. Lakeland Ramblers walking and hiking vacations in Scotland come in three itineraries - an inn-to-inn tour of the Highlands including the Isle of Skye, a walking tour of the Scottish Highlands with three nights on the Isle of Skye, and a Scottish hiking tour of the Highlands and the Hebrides - primarily on the Isles of Skye, Lewis and Harris.
Two of six Scottish walking tours focus primarily off-shore on the Hebrides, a myriad of magical islands which beckon you ever-westward to follow the arc of the setting sun as it slides unhurriedly into the Atlantic.
Private and Customized Walking and Hiking Tours
In addition to guided walking and hiking vacations in England and Scotland, English Lakeland Ramblers also arranges private, customized walking and hiking tours in the Lake District, the Cotswolds and Scotland's Highlands, and offers self-guided walking and hiking tours in the Lake District and the Cotswolds.
A National Trust donation is made for each tour booked.
