Imagine stepping off a train into the heart of Corsica, where rugged mountains kiss the sky and emerald forests whisper tales of adventure. You're in Bocognano, a charming village in the island's mountainous embrace. The air is crisp and fragrant with the scent of pine, the silence only broken by the distant rush of a waterfall.
Corsica, often referred to as the "Island of Beauty", is a place where the mountains, forests, and rivers conspire to create a landscape so diverse and dramatic it leaves even the most seasoned travellers spellbound.
From the quaint allure of Bocognano, with its backdrop of pink-granite peaks and lush pine forests, to the bustling charm of Ajaccio, a city that wears its rich history with pride, Corsica is a symphony of contrasts.
As you traverse the stunning Tavignano Valley, ascend the breathtaking heights of Bocca Palmente, and explore the depths of the Gorge of Richjusa, you'll find each trail unveiling a new facet of Corsica's natural beauty.
Our hikes are designed to be accessible and enjoyable, focusing on the most scenic routes and avoiding the more challenging climbs. We've handpicked a selection of the least demanding yet most rewarding trails, allowing you to experience the beauty of Corsica without the strain.
We'll book your accommodation in Bocognano, provide a detailed handout with day-by-day instructions, and equip you with a user-friendly app for GPS navigation. Need advice on train schedules? We've got you covered.
Join us on a journey where the train whistles are your morning alarm, where the mountain peaks are your skyscrapers, and where the only traffic is the occasional mountain goat!

Walking Holidays Slovenia is great! They provided all of the information and made the arrangements for our self guided walk in Triglav National Park. We hiked to Vodnikov Dom the first day, then to the Seven Lakes Basin the second day, then back to Ribcev Laz the third day. The trails were well marked, and the GPS app recommended by Walking Holidays Slovenia was very helpful for keeping us on track. The trails were very rocky in places, which was a bit of a challenge for us, but it was so beautiful! Very much recommend this company!


We had an incredible time on the 5 day hut to hut hike in Croatia. The views were perfect, the accommodation much nicer than we imagined and we had a fantastic support guide - Ivan - who was very friendly and made the whole trip possible. We were also able to go to the beach most days after we finished our hiking and everything was very flexible. I would highly recommend this to anyone.


having any guarantees about what we were getting. It was a foreign company that we couldn’t find much information about, so there was a lot of anticipation regarding what kind of information we would receive, the standard of the hotels, and whether the luggage transport would work. But everything has gone smoothly. You responded quickly when we contacted you on WhatsApp, and you were solution-oriented. The hikes were great — we made a few adjustments due to the heat on the first day. I was active on social media, and many people have been impressed by the trip. I’ve shared the link to your website with around 10 friends. If you need a reference for other Norwegians, that’s no problem. I’ve posted some videos from the trip on my Instagram: @bjorghatloy. Thank you so much for the trip!
My husband and I recently completed a Walking Holiday of the Amalfi Coast for 11 days, which was absolutely fantastic and the highlight of our trip to Italy. The travel agents who organised the tour Anja and Samo were very helpful, adjusting and customising it to suit our requests. The accomodation booked for us was very comfortable and the transfer of our luggage from hotel to hotel took place with no issues. Our hiking guides including Alessandra, Marcella and Diego were all exceptional. They were friendly, supportive and extremely knowledgable about the towns and regions we walked in. They ensured we had a fantastic experience creating memories, while enjoying the walking, the amazing views, the tasty food and the beautiful Italian culture. I highly recommend this walking tour and would encourage anyone who was planning a similar holiday to book through this company. It was a great way to see and experience the Amalfi Coast.
Tour was very well organised with lots of information to help guide us through the holiday. All the accommodation was great. Particularly liked the self catering Glamping Mountain Fairytale and the Berghi Hotel. Food at the Hotel Starkl restaurant was great as well. The route took us through a beautiful part of the country on quiet roads and cycle paths. The cycle paths are much better than in the UK and I would also like to say that Slovenian car drivers are much more patient and tolerant than many drivers in the UK. Beautiful country. Really enjoyed it.
