Walking Holidays for over 50's

Our walking holidays are a perfect choice for single travellers over 50, offering a blend of adventure, relaxation, and connection with nature. These trips cater to varying fitness levels, from gentle countryside strolls to more challenging hikes in mountainous regions. Walking holidays provide an excellent way to stay active, explore new cultures, and enjoy the beauty of different landscapes.

For solo travellers, joining a guided group walking holiday can be a great way to meet like-minded people and share experiences. These trips often include a mix of walking, local sightseeing, and relaxation time, allowing for a balance of activity and leisure. Some tours also offer cultural insights, like visits to historical sites or culinary experiences. However, at KE we also specilaise in trekking to the high altitudes over Himalayan mountain passes and deep into the Andes.
