A weekend in the hills?
Many of our Self-Guided walking holidays are available as weekend trips, or long weekends. Such short trips to the mountains are a real possibility if the planning is good - and it is! Please see each holiday description for details. Some of the trips are 4 days long and obviously suited to a long weekend, but the following longer trips are also particularly suitable for weekend trips due to the availability of exciting 2- or 3-stage sections within the longer routes:

Coast to Coast West - Lake District Traverse - Pennine Way Central - West Highland Way
