Last minute hiking holidays

Book your next hike today

Nothing beats that post-hike pint, except maybe a massive, fluffy hotel bed waiting for you right after. Whether you’re a hardcore rambler or just in it for the pub at the end, a walking holiday is the perfect excuse to switch off, get some fresh air, and give your legs a proper workout.

And because we’re all about doing late, great, you don’t need to plan your trek months in advance. Just pick a route, grab a last-minute deal, and go.

Where to drag your hiking boots

You don’t have to look far to find a decent mountain to climb. But if you need a little inspiration, here are a few spots where the trails are top-notch and the nearby beds are incredibly comfy.

Top US stomping grounds

• Yosemite National Park: The big one. Whether you’re braving the Half Dome cables or just taking a mellow walk to Lower Yosemite Fall, nearby hotels are perfectly geared up for tired hikers.
• The Appalachian Trail: Wild, rugged, and totally brilliant. You don't have to hike all 2,000 miles of it, either. Pick a day hike in the Great Smoky Mountains and earn yourself a massive dinner.
• Zion National Park: Want to wade through The Narrows or tackle Angels Landing? Base yourself in Springdale and hit the trails early before the crowds show up.
• The Rocky Mountains: For killer views and serious elevation, the trails around Estes Park are winners. Plus, the local breweries are top tier.

Trails across the pond and beyond

• The Inca Trail, Peru: Swap the local woods for ancient ruins. Trekking to Machu Picchu is a bucket-list favorite, and the hotels in nearby Cusco are the perfect place to acclimate and recover.
• Patagonia, Chile and Argentina: Think fresh mountain air, massive glaciers, and the famous W Trek. It's proper hiking territory, with plenty of hearty food waiting for you at the finish line.
• The Lake District, UK: Trade the Rockies for rolling green hills. A stomp up a local fell gives you sweeping views, and you get to eat your body weight in pub grub afterward.
