Embarking on walking holidays for solo travellers has never been more rewarding. If you've been wanting to take a trip but have been put off by the idea of travelling alone, one of our guided walking holidays could be just the ticket. At Ramble Worldwide, we believe that some of life's most extraordinary adventures begin with a single step into the unknown.

Why Choose Solo Walking Holidays with Ramble Worldwide?

One of the best things about our holidays is the opportunity to enjoy others’ company and make new friends. We think that one of the things that makes our holidays extra-special is how sociable they are. They bring together people who have the same interests and outlook, so it’s not surprising that people get on well and often form lifelong friendships.

Walking is a very social activity anyway, as it’s easy to chat to the people around you. Because our tour leaders take you off the tourist trail, you will experience the place in a much deeper and more authentic way, so there’s always plenty to talk about!

 No Single Supplement Worries

Travelling solo doesn’t have to be more expensive either. If you want to, you can choose to share a room with one of the other walkers, which keeps the costs down. If you prefer to have your own space, several of our holidays have no single room supplements – a great money-saver for solo walkers.

Best European Destinations for Hiking Holidays for Singles

Our solo walking holidays in Europe collection spans from walking high above the clouds in the Alps to coastal paths in Greece and Italy. We have a huge variety of expertly led walking holidays that are perfect for solo travellers looking for an outdoor adventure in the company of other like-minded people.

Alpine Adventures for Solo Travellers

Classic Discover Adagio Self-guided

Alpine Arosa – Switzerland

Arosa has all the ingredients for the perfect Alpine holiday for solo travellers. Nestled between 1700-1800m, this pristine location offers high-grade alpine walking with a fantastic mix of walks. Explore a remote and undiscovered area of Switzerland where fellow solo adventurers gather to experience breathtaking mountain vistas and crystal-clear alpine air.

High in the Dolomites – Italy

The Dolomites will appeal to energetic mountain walkers and nature lovers, with vast expanses of flower-filled alpine meadows in late June through to July, and pockets of flowers in August through to September when the snow melts. If you are lucky, you will hear and see marmots, chamois mountain goat-antelope, and overhead, kites, buzzards and golden eagles soaring through the peaks. The variety of terrain and mountain scenery, along with the diversity of flora and fauna creates an unforgettable walking holiday where solo travellers can bond over the shared wonder at nature's majesty.

Mediterranean Solo Walking Adventures

Classic Discover Adagio Self-guided

Walking from San Telmo, Majorca - Spain

Walk in unspoilt surroundings and gaze across captivating landscapes – this is south-west Majorca at its finest. Gain a tremendous sense of achievement as you climb into the hills around S’Arraco and follow the Archduke’s Trail. The terrain is challenging but rewards you with fantastic panoramic views across the Mediterranean. You’ll frequently find yourself amazed by the fantastic seascapes unfolding before you. Although the paths are sometimes stony, rough and steep, our unhurried pace ensures every solo traveller can fully appreciate the island's rugged beauty.

Classic Discover Adagio Self-guided

Portugal's Emerald Coast - Portugal

Based on the stunning Costa Verde in Northern Portugal, this represents a quieter, greener Portugal, famous for its mountains, lush green countryside, beautiful beaches and delightful “Vinho Verde”. We’ll walk along some of Portugal’s finest coastline, as well as meandering along ancient tracks which link the numerous classic Minho villages and lush pastoral valleys. This walking holiday offers solo travellers the perfect blend of coastal beauty and cultural immersion.

Hiking the Austrian Alps

Classic Discover Adagio Self-guided

Bad Hofgastein - Austria

Bad Hofgastein is located at the confluence of several valleys, so there are many and varied walks. Several of the walks take us along the ‘Salzburger Almenweg’, a long distance trail linking picturesque alpine farms where local cheeses and hams are produced. Peaks well over 2000m, such as the Hüttenkogel, can be reached as well as panorama paths and impossibly picturesque mountain lakes. At the end of the day we return to the spa resort of Bad Hofgastein with its vast spa complex of pools and green areas – the perfect place for solo travellers to relax and socialise.
