After a wonderful walk, end each of your days in a different village, where your luggage is waiting for you.

For anyone who craves an experience a little less intrepid than our hut-to-hut walking holidays , take a look at our village-to-village walking holidays, on which we combine a sense of adventure with comfortable accommodation in charming, traditional villages. These holidays have all the credentials of point-to-point exploring on routes that showcase fascinating natural and/or man-made features and glorious landscapes. When you arrive at your authentic, handpicked hotel, your luggage will be waiting for you, along with some welcome comforts and cuisine.

These trips are crafted with all the care and expertise that defines Collett’s’ reputation, coming with seamless logistical support around transfers, planning and baggage. You’ll be provided with a comprehensive Walk Pack containing everything you need for easy self-guiding.  Also, most routes are now accompanied by optional, user-friendly smartphone navigation.

If you would prefer not to pack your bags each day and move on, take a look at our centre-based walking holiday options, all of which include the support of a dedicated Walks Team and much more besides. At the other end of the scale, check out our hut-to-hut walking holidays in the Dolomites, where mindboggling high trails link you with mountain lodges, where you get a comfortable night’s sleep, amazing cuisine, and the heartwarming camaraderie of other hikers.
