How do we decide which tour is right for us?

30th January 2019

All our walking and cycling holidays are graded to help you choose. We grade routes from gentle, moderate to strenuous.

On cycle routes, in gentle countryside, 20 miles will probably take someone who doesn’t cycle regularly 2 -3 hours, so there’s plenty of time for a leisurely lunch and exploration. Generally routes cover 15-25 miles a day through gentle countryside and can be managed by most people. We also have longer more demanding routes for keen and regular cyclists.

Gentle walks are 4 – 6 miles and moderate walks about 8 miles. People do walk at different speeds, and it does depend on how hilly it is, but as a guide most people can walk 2 – 2½ miles an hour as long as its not too hilly.

If you have any questions about what might suit you please contact us and we’ll be happy to talk things over to find what’s right for you.
