A growing number of senior travellers are enjoying multi-day walks designed for the less mobile.
Active travel company UTracks says it has developed a collection of itineraries for senior travellers, with an emphasis on manageable walking distances, optional rest days and comfortable, pre-booked accommodation.
Daily luggage transfers mean walkers can explore without carrying unnecessary weight, allowing them to travel in a way that suits their energy levels and interests.
Detailed route notes, an easy to use navigation app and reliable on-ground support aim to take the stress out of day-to-day logistics, UTracks says.

Among the destinations on offer are Britain’s national trails, France’s alpine passes and the famous Camino de Santiago pilgrimage paths.
