Walking Holidays in Italy

Italy is home to some of the richest history in the world. Passion runs through the veins of Italy; dramatic Riviera coastline, intense Mediterranean flavours, and the local’s voracious appetite for life. 

Trek to medieval stone villages along the pilgrim routes of Tuscany and sip Chianti in sweeping vineyards overlooking fields of radiant sunflowers. Meander down ancient tracks running alongside Mount Etna to crystalised gorges of lava, rugged craters, and centuries-old castles. Hear the roar of gladiators at the Colosseum or unearth volcanically preserved treasures in Pompeii. Then, discover Venice’s opulent mercantile history, embellished Italian Gothic architecture, and gondola jewelled winding canals. In Sicily, you'll see golden Arab domes and arches, mosaic treasures of the Byzantine Empire, and the mediaeval palaces of Norman Kings. 

Sample divine Italian food and wine along the way. Try fior di latte, a fresh mozzarella made from local cows along the Amalfi Coast, or pick wild strawberries as you trek through an alpine paradise.

Our routes will suit walkers of all abilities, from a leisurely Roman Holiday to hikes across alpine Mont Blanc and the Dolomites. Whichever package suits you, you’ll be sure to trek some of the most photogenic spots on the planet.

With various walking grades on offer, there's something for everyone, whether you are looking for a relaxed stroll or a more active hike. Our walks in Italy are graded 1-8, from ‘leisurely’ to ‘Challenging’ – learn more about our holiday walking grades. 

On our Italian walking holidays, you can choose between guided walking holidays where you will be trekking in a small group, accompanied by one of our professional walking experts, on an itinerary that has been carefully planned out by our knowledgeable specialists.

Alternatively, we have a range of self-guided walking holidays in Italy that will allow you to enjoy the best walking routes independently by following information that has been arranged by our walking experts. With these types of holidays, you can still experience the rolling hills, the Olive and Lemon groves, the hilltop towns and stunning coastlines, except you decide when you do it and at what time. These self-guided hiking holidays come with 24-hour emergency support and handpicked accommodation.
