Balkans

Can you personally recommend your favourite hike?

?

Answered by: Rudolf Abraham

Trying to recommend my favourite hike in the Balkans is a bit like asking me to pick my favourite French cheese or bottle of wine – there are just so many hikes in the Balkans for which I have vivid, unforgettable memories. All of the hikes listed above are personal favourites, though it’s the trans-border trails which hold a particularly special place in my hiking hall of fame.

The United Kingdom is a walking holiday paradise: Hundreds of thousands of miles of well-mapped public footpaths, beautifully varied landscapes, excellent hospitality, and easily accessible. It’s no wonder this is a nation of walkers.

With over 11,000 miles of coastline on the main island of Great Britain alone (nearly 20,000 miles when you include the entire archipelago), coastal paths feature highly on many walking holidays and long-distance ways. Aside from fresh sea air and varied, frequently impressive, seascapes, the main advantage to a coastal walking holiday is the relative ease of navigation.
