Do I need to be very fit

30th January 2019

You do not need to be super-fit to enjoy one of our holidays, they are pleasurable, not an endurance test! You do have all day, and if you do not regularly cycle or walk one of the gentle options is easily manageable for most people.

Routes are graded (gentle, moderate or strenuous) and flexible so there’s something to suit all ages and abilities. If you do not cycle or walk regularly it is a good idea to do some preparation before you come on the holiday and then you will find the first couple of days more pleasurable.
