Self-guided.

Running from point to point without a guide to show you the way. You will follow marker signs and/or written instructions in trail information notes with a map to help you.

If you like a paperless environment then many routes have GPS tracks to follow on your handheld GPS device or mobile phone, however we advise you take a printed version as a back-up in case of battery failure or damage..

Carefree.

Any holiday should be carefree, but on a self-guided running holiday it is good to know that:

Your luggage will be delivered for you at your next accommodation.

Your route has been tried and tested.

There is someone on call to help out if you encounter any difficulties.

At your own pace.

Self-guided running holidays allow you to run at your own pace, without being urged on by a tour leader or held back by a slower group member.

You can set off whenever you like after breakfast, take a leisurely break during the day to enjoy your lunch whilst admiring the scenery or dipping your feet in the sea or in a cooling stream.

If the thought of a dip in the hotel pool or a beer on the terrace at the end of the day spurs you on, then stride out. It is your choice!

On your back.

With your main luggage being transferred for you, you only need to carry a small day pack on your back with a few essentials for the hike.

Dont forget to take:

Sustenance - enough drinking water and energy snacks.

Weather protection - sunscreen, sunhat.

For eventualities - first aid kit, spare socks, torch/flashlight, whistle, mobile phone.

Directions - GPS device with map and instructions, in case of device failure.
