Frescoed churches, Renaissance art, family-run vineyards and, of course, mouth-watering cuisine, mean that our walking holidays in Italy are always worth it. We actively encourage you to delight in the details – a graceful villa, a rippling wheat field – this is what Inntravel holidays are all about. And since you’re not with a group, and have no luggage (we transfer it between hotels), you can do just that, following our comprehensive route notes at your own pace.
Our walking holidays in Italy explore famously alluring regions such as Tuscany and Sicily, but also lesser-known corners such as the Apennine Mountains, Piedmont (Piemonte) and the Gargano Peninsula, the spur of Italy's heel. Whatever backdrop you’d like for your walking holiday, Italy has something for you – you could walk beneath the mighty peaks of the Dolomites or Mont Blanc; follow paths high above the sea in Liguria; along the shores of the Italian Lakes; or through the lemon groves of the Amalfi Coast. Whichever you choose, you’ll enjoy some of the best walking Italy has to offer.
Inntravel has been offering Italian walking holidays since 1994, meaning we know the best regions, the most scenic paths and the friendliest hotels. We cater for all levels, from gentle strolls to high-mountain hikes, so decide what grade is best suited to you, and whether you’d like to walk from hotel to hotel or from a single centre, and take it from there.
Grade 1
Generally easy walking with few ascents / descents, but perhaps the occasional long day.
Grade 1-2
Easy-to-moderate walking with some ascents / descents, and occasional longer days.
Grade 2
Moderate walking on varied terrain, with some long days and regular ascents / descents.
Grade 2-3
Moderate-to-challenging walking on more rugged terrain with significant ascents / descents on most days. Compass skills may be required (check the individual holiday).
Grade 3
Challenging hikes, featuring long days with significant ascent / descent on challenging terrain. Compass skills may be required.
Flexible
Choice of easier or harder routes, so that you can tailor most days to your requirements.
Walking holidays in Italy, the Inntravel way
Strikingly beautiful landscapes; charming, family-run hotels and agriturismos chosen by us for their warm welcome; and delicious food and wines. These are the three essential ingredients of Inntravel holidays, and our walking holidays in Italy are no different.
Extensive route information
On an Inntravel walking holiday you can depend on our detailed, comprehensive route notes. Distilled from many years’ experience, brimming with up-to-date local information, think of our route notes as your portable and reliable guide. No need to spend precious time planning routes – simply set off and enjoy the views!
Holidays tailored for you
Because you explore independently on an Inntravel holiday, you can personalise the arrangements. Pick a holiday, then decide when to start, how long to stay (you can add extra nights) and how to get there. Then we take care of the details – from train, ferry or flight bookings to hotel and taxi reservations.
