A Summer Holiday with Collett’s – In a Nutshell

On a Collett’s summer walking holiday you arrive and depart on the dates of your choice. From May to October, in our three majestic mountain destinations, we offer free, optional and stunning walks daily. Day to day you can choose a hard walk on dramatic high trails or an easier moderate walk, rich in flora, fauna and breathtaking mountain scenery – or you can do a self guided walk of any grade. In the Dolomites, our free daily walks include easy walks, flower walks (June & July only) and painting strolls.

You can plan your days each early evening at ‘Office Hour.’ Over a relaxed pre-dinner drink, you can browse maps and chat with our own walkers, perhaps signing up to one of their organised walks or using their knowledge to plan a suitable self guided walk. In the Dolomites, our original destination, we can also help you do Via Ferrata or join War Walks and Glacier Treks or partake in various alpine activities.

Our picturesque resorts have magical mountain backdrops. We offer charming hotels, attractive self catering apartments and our own delightful chalet hotels with amazing views, lovely en suite bedrooms and excellent food. Our local staff set us apart from other holiday companies and are invaluable sources of local knowledge. Without interfering, they will ensure your stay is a complete success.

Thank you for an absolutely fabulous time. You run a very streamline, effective operation that allowed us to relax and enjoy hiking in the Pyrenees.

Fantastic holiday, beats my previous "best trip" which was the Inca trail - made all the better by the helpfulness and hospitality from the staff at Chalet Bracun!

Trekking in the Pyrenees

We had previously been on holiday with Collet's in the Dolomites and found it an enjoyable holiday. It was just as good in the Picos de Europa.

One of our best experiences. The staff were very attentive, supportive and enthusiastic of our walking ambitions. A heartfelt thank you to all in Panticosa!
