Walking holidays in Spain & The Canary Islands

- wildlife, culture and more

Inntravel’s walking holidays in Spain – like all our holidays – are about getting to know the area. We encourage you to pause as often as you like – you’re not in a group, and have no luggage (we transfer it to the next carefully chosen hotel). So follow our reliable route notes at your own pace, and enjoy a walking holiday that's worth it. Step into the cool interior of a wayside church, watch a griffon vulture gliding on the thermals, amble through a medieval village…

Where to go walking in Spain

Inntravel’s range of walking holidays in Spain is as varied as the scenery itself. What’s more, thanks to the benign climate of Andalucia, Alicante, Mallorca (Majorca) and the Canary Islands, we offer Spanish walking holidays all year round. All our holidays take you away from the main tourist trail – we even offer a quieter Camino de Santiago walking holiday – but to get even further off the beaten track, choose a walking holiday in the northern provinces or on the island of Menorca. Wherever you choose, with Inntravel you’ll enjoy some of the best walking Spain has to offer.

How our walking holidays in Spain are graded

When it comes to walking, Spain offers something for everyone, from gentle strolls along the coast of Catalonia, to challenging hikes amid the peaks of the Pyrenees, via moderate-level rambles along the Camino de Santiago. To be sure of choosing the holiday that’s right for you, you should familiarise yourself with our grading system below.

Grade 1

These gentle strolls range typically between 5-10km per day and involve few ascents or descents. Go at your own pace, pause at every opportunity, and take it all in.
Grade 1-2

You don't have to be a seasoned hiker to enjoy these walks, but someone who's happy to take on around 5-15km each day – with the occasional hill thrown in.
Grade 2

Expect to cover approximately 10-15km a day, across varied terrain with regular ascents and descents. You'll be challenged in places – but enjoy superb views.
Grade 2-3

Where rugged terrain goes hand in hand with the satisfaction of reaching a peak or high pass. Typically, days range between 7-20km and involve significant ascent and descent.
Grade 3

Our most thrilling walks involve full days on the trails, more challenging terrain, and testing ascents and descents, but there's still time to appreciate your surroundings.
Flexible

Choice of easier or harder routes, so that you can tailor most days to your requirements.
