What do family walking
vacations entail?
If your kids are eight years plus, things get a bit more exciting, as they can walk further and take part in more adventurous activities along the way, such as walking Machu Picchu in Peru or in the Annapurna foothills in Nepal. Small group walking trips as also possible once the kids are older. These are usually restricted to kids over the age of 12 as they involve longer days and more intense activities, and you’ll have to keep up with the other travelers on your trip. On small group vacations you’ll travel with like minded families, with a maximum of 16 people per trip. Walking is sometimes interspersed with other adventurous activities such as biking and kayaking.
When and where to go with kids
If heading further afield, the August summer break sees excellent conditions on Mount Kilimanjaro, in Canada’s national parks and at Machu Picchu, while Nepal is best avoided due to monsoon rains. If walking in Annapurna or Everest Base Camp, the Easter break around March-April is a good time to visit.

Walking vacation advice for families
“We would recommend our single center vacations for families. These are great because you’re based in one hotel and can enjoy lots of other activities as well as the great walking routes. Or go for a combination activity vacation, such as our Dordogne or Austrian vacations,that combine walking with cycling and canoeing.”
