Wilderness England

I Hiked Part of England's Longest National Trail — Here's What I Saw Along the Way

"I signed on for a seven-day, small-group walking tour with Wilderness England and found an operator founded in 2020 as a sister company to Wilderness Scotland and Wilderness Ireland; they offer guided and self-guided walking, cycling, and sailing journeys for small groups (maximum eight to 10 people) in regions including the Cotswolds, Yorkshire, and the Lake District, with tours that vary in difficulty and an easy-to-reference carbon footprint calculated for each itinerary." - Laura Beausire Laura Beausire Laura Beausire is a Colorado-based writer with three decades of experience covering travel, art, design, and outdoor adventure.
