Say hola to our fabulous young adult trekking tours in Spain and the Spanish islands. Some packages follow sections of the world-famous Camino de Santiago, a pilgrimage route stretching through the rustic villages and green countryside of northern Spain and ending at the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. In beautiful Tenerife, meanwhile, the laurel forests of Anaga Rural Park and the volcanic uplands of Teide National Park offer spectacularly scenic hiking terrain, while vibrant beach resorts are perfect for resting your limbs and refuelling on delicious Spanish and international cuisine.

Our hiking tours in South Africa for young travellers from the UK provide a real taste of this country’s incredible scenery and wildlife. Hikes in the Drakensberg region feature a landscape of indigenous forests, natural pools and spectacular ancient caves and offer sublime mountain vistas. Many young adult tours also include intrepid guided walking safaris in game reserves with chances to spot some of the Big Five animals.

There’s nothing like a proper hiking trip to appreciate the sheer magnitude and magnificence of the Grand Canyon. Hiking trips to the USA for 18-30 somethings offer much more, too. There are treks in Bryce Canyon National Park, famous in particular for the columnar spires of rock known as hoodoos. And you can wander through the otherworldly desert terrain of Canyonlands National Park, taking in natural wonders such as the Island in the Sky, the Needles and the Maze.
