Guided Walks & Holiday Titles

Our Simply Active guided walking holidays are dedicated to your interests and needs. During our Chilterns, Thames and Oxford programme you will enjoy easy and moderate walking of either 6-8 miles or 8-11 miles a day. For those booking as a group - the distance selected per day is entirely at your discretion - walk for miles or enjoy short walks with sightseeing galore- the choice is yours!

In keeping with our ethos of encouraging participation and getting active we will, during the year, be offering exclusive guided walking short breaks that support the NHS Be Active walking initiatives - short miles - with all the holiday fun! 

On our walks we may experience some short climbs at times but this is not full on hill country and we don't rush our walking - we simply have too much to see and enjoy! 

Walks with titles to inspire:

  • Walk if you dare - down the Midsomer Murder trails
  • Mills, thrills and witches
  • Adventurous walks in the Chilterns - glorious walks of 13-16 miles
  • The Aldworth Giants and a simply great old English pub
  • A village odyssey - Jordans & Chalfont St Giles - walk in the footsteps of John Milton and the Quakers, founders of New England
  • Perfect peace - the Chiltern beech woods, farmlands & our magnificent red kites
  • Stowe gardens and hidden Hamlets

And for those seeking a guided walking holiday with a little extra to enjoy why not participate on our Active Learning walking holiday programme. On this programme our aim as always will be to deliver lovely walks, fun and community but with opportunities to open doors - nature and fauna, history, local characters and culture, perhaps intrigue or mystery. On these walking holidays we will take you in different directions, with learning to enhance but at the heart of our offer is activity, companionship and walks to enjoy in the great outdoors. 

  • Roaming the Ridgeway - view and enjoy ancient Iron Age hill forts, Stone Age flint mines and Pitstone Hill nature reserve
  • Quakers - their contributions to society - work, places and life in Buckinghamshire
  • 'Mills and Hills' Discovery time - our Rupert Brooke connection and ringing-the-bull, one of Britain's oldest pub games); Grim's Ditch and boundary mysteries
  • Following the Drovers' - trails of old - the drovers' pounds and bodger's tree
  • Autumn colours: magical woodlands, glorious Beeches, and fungi to discover
