Walkers' Britain & Europe has announced 20 new active holiday ideas for 2026, offering travellers unique ways to explore the British Isles. Highlights include a whisky tour in Scotland's Speyside, a visit to the Yorkshire Dales where the new 'Wuthering Heights' film was shot, and a walk along the Channel Island Way in Guernsey, enhanced by new flights and a food festival.
The new itineraries are designed to showcase the diverse landscapes and cultural heritage of the British Isles. In Scotland, visitors can immerse themselves in the whisky culture of Speyside, home to over half of the country's distilleries. The trip, 'A Taste of Whisky & Walking in the Cairngorms & Speyside', offers a blend of Highland scenery and whisky tasting, departing from April to October.
Film enthusiasts can explore the dramatic landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales, featured in the upcoming 'Wuthering Heights' film starring Margot Robbie. The 'Dales Way' trip provides an eight-day journey through rolling hills and stone-built villages, available from March to October.
Guernsey's Channel Island Way offers stunning coastal views and local flavours, with British Airways launching daily flights from London Heathrow in April. The island will also host 'The Big Eat Guernsey', a new month-long food festival in spring and autumn.
These trips, along with others such as the Inverness Castle Experience and the expanded trails of Connemara National Park, provide travellers with fresh reasons to explore the British Isles. Walkers' Britain & Europe aims to cater to a variety of interests, from history and culture to nature and adventure, ensuring a memorable experience for all.
