Walking holiday specialist Celtic Trails has just launched a collection of ‘Express’ walks for 2018, taking some of the nation’s favourite hikes and condensing their itineraries so that they can be enjoyed over a shorter period of time, ideal for those that are either time-poor or looking for more of a fitness challenge with more miles covered each day.
From the undulating hills and pretty valleys of the popular Offa’s Dyke route, winding from Chepstow in Monmouthshire to Prestatyn in North Wales, to the iconic Hadrian’s Wall in Northumbria, prices are available from £475pp, made simple with easy-to-follow route plans, pre-planned hotel stays and luggage transfers throughout.
“We are noticing more and more people are looking to combine a holiday with a fitness challenge which led us to introduce these more extreme working itineraries,” commented Ben Cunningham, managing director of Celtic Trails. “We can tailor our walks to the number of miles our walkers want to achieve, taking into account we need to find them a good comfy bed for the night. This type of trip is perfect for a group of like-minded friends and gives everyone something to train for which is always good for goal setting at the start of the year” he added.
