Where to go on a walking holiday in France?

France awaits you with plenty of great hiking destinations worth discovering. Particularly fascinating is the Mont Blanc circuit. In addition, there are wonderful experiences in store on our walking holiday along the French Riviera and our walking holiday in Normandy.

Hiking around Mont Blanc

With an altitude of over 4800m, Mont Blanc is one of the highest peaks in Europe and this huge mountain has several great experiences to offer - even if you don't climb it directly. A lot has happened since the mountain was first climbed in the late 1700s and the area now has a really good infrastructure for all visitors - which has also offered new routes. On our hike around Mont Blanc, you will discover the unique world of the mountain and see it from different angles and different heights.

Hiking in Alsace between culture, nature and medieval paths

In eastern France, you can look forward to great experiences along the Franco-German border. Walking holidays in beautiful Alsace offer hikers beautiful natural landscapes where the proud Vosges mountains, grand palaces, castles and lush vineyards beckon. Historic towns where it feels like travelling back in time are certainly a big part of the great experiences you have in store in Alsace.

Picture-perfect Provence

Here in the South of France, time moves just a little bit slower than elsewhere and you'll enjoy the relaxed atmosphere on your walking holiday with Bering Travel. In Provence, it's easy to get a break from everyday life. The climate in Provence also helps to spoil visitors with countless days of sunshine throughout the year. It's not just delicious wine in the area. The delicious fresh herbs of Provence are used in several local dishes that you can enjoy. See our Wine & Hiking tour around Mont Ventoux.

On a walking holiday in Provence, you'll notice the wealth of colour that pervades the landscape, as well as the beautiful historic villages and flourishing fields that follow you throughout the tour.

Côte d’Azur

As the name suggests, most days you'll be accompanied by a deep blue sky as you walk along the Côte d'Azur. But this coast isn't all chic towns and exquisite beaches that offer a glimpse into the Southern French lifestyle. If you head just a little inland, you'll find lush countryside and romantic little towns. See, for example, our Walking holiday along the French Riviera and our Walking tour from mountain villages to the French Riviera.

A wealth of experiences in France

If you step off the beaten track, France is also full of attractions. Take advantage of the days off from hiking to explore the countryside and discover the rich French culture and history. The food in particular should be tasted where you arrive and it is certainly possible to find that little French mountain village where the food and views are absolutely exquisite. Being the experts that we are, we naturally have some good suggestions on what experiences you should seek out on your trips.
