For over two decades we have specialized
and excelled in providing walking and hiking tours
of some of the most spectacular and idyllic countrysides
of Scotland and England. Our hiking vacations in England
are in the exquisite Lake District and the charming
Cotswolds. In Scotland we 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 our 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 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 walking tours feature lodging in the heart
of this enchanting region. The superbly scenic
countryside of rolling meadows and beech forests
lends itself to our gentlest series of walks. Steeped
in history, the tiny Cotswolds villages of honey-colored
limestone with thatched cottages cluster around
spired churches.

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 our 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.
In addition to our guided walking and hiking vacations
in England and Scotland, we also arrange private,
customized walking and hiking tours in the Lake
District, the Cotswolds and Scotland's Highlands.
And we offer self-guided walking and hiking tours
in the Lake District and the Cotswolds.
