They are a place to fully immerse yourself in nature and take in awe-inspiring landscapes and seascapes.
This is a center-based holiday, staying at a traditional mountain lodge in Vaset, with excellent facilities, and hundreds of trails on its doorstep.
This lodge is also celebrated for its local, traditional food, and with an elevation of 1,000m, you not only have saunas to relax in at night, you also have incredible clear skies for stargazing. We recommend that you have some cross-country skiing experience, however there is a ski school in the area for lessons, as an optional extra.

- Optional hotel upgrade: Westcord Art
Your walk today takes you along the east side of Loch Lomond, clinging to the water’s edge along much of the way. This is a lovely, low level and relaxed stage as it meanders past pebbly beaches and giving you plenty of time to take in the surrounding scenery and wildlife.
- Cycling for the day: 53km
- Accommodation: Hotel Lion d’Or or similar
- Optional hotel upgrade: Landgoed Duin & Kruidberg in Santpoort-Noord (includes dinner)
From Rowardennan, the path heads into thick woodland. There are two options here: the easier being the wide forest track which follows the contours up and down the hill; or the more time consuming, narrow path which skirts over rocks and exposed tree roots along the banks of the loch. The rocky and uneven path continues along the loch, hugging the water’s edge amidst ancient oak forest. The loch becomes noticeably narrower as the path approaches Inverarnan.
- Cycling for the day: 38km
- Accommodation: Tulip-Inn Leiden Centre, Golden Tulip Leiden Centre, Fletcher Wellness Hotel or similar
Soon after leaving Inverarnan, the path runs alongside the picturesque, fast-flowing River Falloch before a long stretch on an old military road. The route here closely follows the West Highland Line railway and eventually passes underneath the tracks as the path nears a coniferous forest. The route continues through the forest along a winding, undulating path, eventually crossing the road and River Fillin. Views of the surrounding mountains are wonderful. A well-maintained path follows the River Cononish before reaching Tyndrum.
- Cycling for the day: 63km
- Accommodation: Westcord Fashion Hotel or similar
- Optional hotel upgrade: Westcord Art
Take a steep serpentine path up to the village of Anopolis, from there walk to ancient Aradena, situated at the edge of the impressive Aradena Gorge. A scenic path goes down into the Aradena Gorge all the way to the coast. The last part of today’s walk takes you along the coast back to Loutro. A shorter route today is possible via the tiny village of Livaniana and then descending through the Aradena Gorge to the sea. Depending on your flight time on the following day, you may need to travel back to Chora Sfakion by ferry today, and on to Chania or Heraklion.
