Italy
Explore ancient trails along the rolling hills of Tuscany and stop for lunch in the medieval town of San Gimignano before sampling delicious local white wine. Go beyond the glitzy facade of trendy boutiques and lose yourself in the maze of white-washed cobbled streets and vibrant bougainvillaea in
Capris on the Amalfi Coast, or
hike up Europe's highest volcano, Mount Etna, on the island of Sicily.
Spain

pilgrimage from Leon to Santiago along the Camino Frances. Or head into the
rolling hills of Andalucia to discover age-old trails, shaded olive groves and quaint white-washed villages. The volcanic Canary Islands of Tenerife,
Gran Canaria, La Gomera are gilded with golden-sand beaches, aquamarine oceans and colourful flora for spectacular walking vistas. And the unspoilt
mountain trails of Picos de Europa National Park will take you through wild and sweeping valleys far beyond the beaten track.

walking holiday to Madeira will reveal verdant pathways along the island's extensive network of Levada irrigation channels and lagoons.
