About Self Guided Travel.

Self Guided Travel is a publisher and search engine dedicated to sustainable adventure tourism.

We create content to inspire slow, low-impact travel — and we’ve built a platform to help travellers find walking, hiking, and cycling holidays, outdoor adventures, and places to stay that reflect the same values.

We Only Feature

• Walking, hiking, and cycling holidays across the UK and Europe.
• Low-impact outdoor adventures such as kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, and other environmentally friendly, nature-based activities that work with the landscape rather than against it.
• Independent places to stay — from country inns and boutique hotels to farm stays, guesthouses, and lodges — located in or around National Landscapes, National Parks, and National Trails, chosen for their character, quality, and deep connection to place.

Low-impact means journeys that leave little trace: nature-focused experiences, active travel once you arrive, and accommodation that supports local communities rather than exploits them.

We don’t list mass tourism, corporate chains, motorised sports, or high-impact activities.

Our Mission

• Inspire travellers to explore at their own pace.
• Promote local businesses that care about people, place, and planet.
• Build a trusted platform for sustainable, self-guided adventures.

Every result you see on Self Guided Travel supports a better way to travel — rooted in the landscapes that make the UK and Europe truly unique.

Our Vision

‍We believe the future of travel is slower, lighter, and more meaningful.

Self Guided Travel is building the first dedicated platform for sustainable walking, hiking, cycling, and outdoor adventures — combining inspiring stories with powerful search tools to connect travellers and local businesses through trust, care, and a shared love for the natural and cultural landscapes we explore.
