Planning your trekking holiday in Europe with Grand Angle

The list above is an invitation to set off:

to discover Italy on foot, a country where nature and culture come together to offer breathtaking scenery, from the Dolomites to the Cinque Terre and Sicily

on more alpine adventures, such as the Gran Paradiso traverse through the spectacular valleys of the oldest national park in the Alps, with stunning views of Mont Blanc and the other giants of the Alps
to the beach or into the sunshine in Greece and its islands, such as Crete. An island of countless contrasts, with wild gorges, picturesque villages and hidden coves.
to polar destinations such as Norway, Sweden or Iceland,
or simply to France, along its most beautiful long-distance walking routes, from Auvergne to the Pyrenees, taking in the most beautiful trails in Provence and on the Côte d’Azur!

Every departure is an opportunity to experience a unique adventure, planned and led by passionate experts for unforgettable moments. To help you choose between these destinations, our selection of Europe’s most beautiful walks describes ten treks, from the Tour du Mont Blanc to the Kungsleden in Swedish Lapland.

Which European treks suit your experience level?

Our treks cater for all levels, from beginner walkers to experienced trekkers, with routes taking you from the Alps to the Mediterranean islands, via historic trails in northern and southern Europe. Set off on a self-guided adventure, with a group or on a family walking holiday, with or without a guide, and discover destinations that combine nature, culture and heritage.

When should you go trekking in Europe?

Europe offers an incredible variety of climates and landscapes, which means that the best time for your trek will depend largely on your destination and the kind of experience you are looking for. Here are some pointers to help you plan your adventure:

Spring (April - June): nature awakens

Ideal for those who want to avoid the summer crowds and enjoy mild temperatures for hiking in April, May or June. For destinations, start with the Mediterranean coast (Italy, Greece, France – Provence, Côte d’Azur): spring is perfect for exploring coastal trails and islands. Temperatures are pleasant for walking, and nature is in full bloom. Consider the Cinque Terre in Italy, the Greek islands or the Calanques in France. Next, southern France, with regions such as Provence, Auvergne or the Pyrenees, offers beautiful hikes through lush green landscapes. Finally, the Alps (at low and medium elevations): the snow begins to melt, revealing the trails. From May onwards, the Alpine foothills, including the Vercors, Chartreuse and Bauges, are ideal for getting away from it all. June is often an excellent month, with long days and fewer walkers on some routes such as the Tour du Mont Blanc, although snow may linger at higher elevations.

In the mountains, some high-altitude trails may still be covered in snow, especially in early spring. Mountain huts gradually open for the season.

Summer (July – August): the call of the peaks and the Far North

This is the peak season for many destinations, perfect for #mountain treks and northern regions. Here are a few destination suggestions:

The Alps (France, Italy, Switzerland): this is the most popular time to hike in the Alps. Most trails are accessible, including high-level routes such as the Tour du Mont Blanc or the GR20. Mountain huts are open.
Polar destinations (Norway, Sweden, Iceland): summer brings long days (with the midnight sun in some regions) and milder temperatures, ideal for hiking. Many trails and mountain huts in Norway, for example, are only open in summer.
France (GR routes): this is a good time to explore the long-distance hiking trails (GR routes) throughout the country.

Please note: this is the busiest period. It can be hot, especially in the Mediterranean. Summer thunderstorms are possible in the mountains.[15]

Autumn (September – October): vibrant colours and tranquillity

For those looking for beautifully coloured landscapes, temperatures that are still mild and fewer people on the trails, here are some destinations we suggest:

Mediterranean (Italy, Greece, Spain): the late season is ideal. Temperatures are milder than in summer, and the sea is still warm.
Alps: September is often an excellent month for hiking, with days that are still pleasant and fewer crowds. The landscapes take on autumn colours, as in the Queyras with its larch trees
France: the forests of the Massif Central and the trails of Provence offer magnificent displays of colour
Norway, Sweden, Iceland (early autumn): beautiful hikes amid autumn colours are possible, but the days grow shorter and the weather can become more unsettled. This is also the start of the northern lights season in northern regions.

The days grow shorter. In the mountains, the first snow can arrive towards the end of the season. Most mountain huts begin to close.

Winter (November - March): time for snowshoeing or sunny destinations

For those who love snowy landscapes, the Northern Lights or snowshoeing holidays:

the Alps, of course: Vercors, Switzerland, Austria…
the Upper Black Forest in Germany
Swedish Lapland or the Lofoten Islands in the polar regions

And also for those who prefer sunny destinations:

Morocco and the deserts
Madeira
The Canary Islands
Andalusia
Réunion
Portugal

In summary, Europe offers trekking opportunities all year round. Spring and autumn are often considered excellent seasons for many regions, offering a good balance between pleasant weather and fewer visitors. Summer is ideal for the high mountains and northern destinations, while winter will appeal to those who enjoy a polar atmosphere.

François 6/23/26 • Madeira: Hiking in an Extraordinary Garden

— Very interesting itineraries that often take you along less-traveled trails. Transportation and hotels were impeccable. A few inconsistencies between the app and the roadbook. The map showing how to get to Portela from Porto da Cruz is missing. Overall, we’re thrilled with this trip!

Thank you very much for your feedback! We're delighted that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you also for your comments on the roadbook and the app—we'll look into them to improve our materials. We look forward to accompanying you on your next trip!

Leigh Ann 7/18/26 • Tour du Mont Blanc - Guided 10-Day

— This was one of the best trips of my life!! Physically, the hiking was challenging, but doable, which was what my party was looking for. Every minute of the day, the views were SPECTACULAR!!! Literally breathtaking. Our guide took great care of us and we LOVED our 3 course meals every night in the different, fascinating cities. We also met so many fun and friendly people on the Tour. Loved it all❤️
