Trekking holidays in Europe
KE’s choice of contrasting 1 and 2-week European trekking holidays continues to grow.
Comprised of more than 30 countries, almost all of them speaking a different language, Europe is one of the most culturally diverse of the continents. It is also blessed with an extraordinary number of mountainous regions, many of which simply cannot be overlooked as potential destinations for trekking holidays. On account of this, our repertoire of European holidays has once again increased - with 7 completely new holidays being added to the collection. These include: an introductory Alpine Week on the Italian side of Monte Rosa, a Sicilian volcano trekking trip and a hut-to-hut trek in Austria's Arlberg Mountains. From classic Alpine summits to tranquil Mediterranean trails, Europe includes a range of trekking holidays to suit all tastes. The key to the success of these short trips is their low cost and their accessibility, coupled with a growing realisation of just how much adventure can be packed into them.
