Wet weather getting you down, fancy some walking that isn’t through the same familiar countryside? Adeventure walking holidays could be the perfect escape.

Walking abroad in a foreign country is always an experience to savour because it’s so wonderfully different from our usual surroundings. But for something a little more thrilling than a walk through French villages and vineyards, what about an adventure to the wilds of Australia or Africa?

We’ve talked about village walks in the Lake District at walking.org before, but never really touched on foreign travel. Going abroad has always been a popular pastime for us Brits, usually because we’re fed up with the bad weather or seeking some escapism from our daily lives.

So in the vein of getting away from it all and going wild, we have our eye on Afreco Tours who specialise in wildlife adventures and training courses in Australia and South Africa. The great thing about these kind of beaks is the on the trail training where you get to not only take in the stunning scenery and wildlife while getting a good walk, but you have the opportunity develop new skills and utilise your existing outdoor abilities.

“Our educational Australian wilderness adventures are for those looking for a true authentic outback experience. We cater for the traveller who has an interest in the outdoors, nature, wildlife and conservation and of course the environment; as well as Australia’s aboriginal cultural history.”

Sounds like the perfect walking holiday for any outdoor enthusiast doesn’t it?
