Planning your Walking Holiday

Make life easier and enjoy this glorious Island at your own pace by taking advantage of companies that offer walking holidays and luggage transfer schemes.

Walking Holidays

A Wight Walks Holiday is a wonderful way to explore the hidden charms of the Isle of Wight; it's a very flexible holiday starting and finishing on any day of the week to suit your lifestyle. You will be walking from one place to another carrying only a light weight day sack, stopping some where different each night, with the freedom to walk at your own pace, stop for breaks when you want and spend as long as you want exploring the villages, towns or sites of historical interest along the trail.

Providing guided or unescorted walking holidays, Step by Step offers the walker many advantages. These include transport to and from walk locations and local knowledge, maps and guides for the Isle of Wight's finest walks.

Whether you want the added enjoyment and interest provided by a local walk leader or the freedom to wander some of Britain's finest countryside, Step by Step Walking Holidays will provide you with a truly memorable walking holiday.
