From the mountains of Corisca to trails along the Mediterranean sea, our walking holidays in France will take you off-the-beaten path.
Explore the tapestry of landscapes, culture and charm that makes France so special.
From dramatic Mediterranean coasts to jagged mountain peaks, our two village-to-village walking holidays in France are very different, but equally tantalising. Firstly, we offer a French walking holiday in Corsica amidst the magical mountains, coast, and culture of the Isle of Beauty. This village-to-village adventure includes daily baggage transfers and takes you point-to-point across staggering landscapes, eventually spilling you out on coastal paths above clear-blue waters.
Secondly, we have a walking holiday in France in the south-east corner of the country that hugs the Mediterranean coast starting from the quaint harbour town of Collioure, taking walkers south, over the Spanish border to Cadaqués, a walking holiday of ridges, beaches, coves, and vibrant ports – with backdrops provided by the Pyrenean foothills and the blue waters of the Mediterranean.
Our French walking holidays are designed for self-guided adventurers seeking comfort but also a sense of discovery. You needn’t be a hardened hiker; moderate grades, clear way-marking, and option to choose more or less challenging routes make these holidays suitable for walkers of all abilities. Self-navigate with ease using our comprehensive route notes & maps, whilst we take care of transporting your luggage to your next overnight stop.

Our village-to-village holidays in France
Our walking holiday to Corsica takes you on a unforgettable exploration of the magical mountains, coast, and culture of the Mediterranean’s most mountainous island. Often referred to as ‘The Isle of Beauty’, the sheer diversity of scenery, flora & fauna on Corsica is astounding. Your journey takes you along glittering bay and vibrant coastal cities to dramatic enclosed gorges, dense forests and hilltop villages where time stands still, all whilst immersing yourself in the island’s vibrant culture and rich history. You’ll stay each night in characterful accommodations in traditional villages, enjoying local Corsican cuisine.
For a contrasting but equally stirring walking holiday in France, our Collioure to Cadaqués route blends coastline, culture, and art in a way few places can. Starting in Collioure, a colourful Catalan fishing village with strong artistic heritage, you walk ridge-top paths and coastal trails hugging the Mediterranean sea. Depending on the day, you can also venture on a route into the foothills of the Pyrenees, walking through vineyards and chestnut orchards and boasting spectucalr panoramic vistas. You reach Cadaques on a beautiful ancient coastal path, lined with stone walls and winding between terraces, where you can enjoy the views of white houses tumbling down to the sea.
