Boasting 10 different mountain ranges and more than 100 subranges, Europe is certainly a special continent for hikers. With trips of all different lengths and difficulty levels, there is the perfect option on this little continent for everyone.

Among the most popular are the GR20 on the French island territory of Corsica. This classic trek runs diagonally through the island from the northwest to the southeast and provides incredible views of the rugged interior and pristine seashore. For physically fit hikers, it is the perfect way to spend a week-long holiday.

Farther north, but still in France, the Tour du Mont Blanc is another week-long hiking classic that takes participants around the base of the iconic peak. Passing through Italy and Switzerland as well, this hiking tour provides incredible views of the Alps, great opportunities to meet local people and try local food and drink and unforgettable memories.
