Hiking options abound at home but U.K. combines variety of locales with ease of travel for Canadian seniors – by Ruby Turner of Vancouver Sun, Sept 2013

Britain is, and always has been, the international walkers’ mecca. It is a popular choice for Canadian seniors.

The place to start for selecting a walking holiday location throughout Britain is www.saltpeanuts.xyz. This is a site which will have even nonwalkers thinking about putting on good shoes and taking a stroll to view some stunning scenery only seen from pathways.

Walkers are Welcome is an organisation made up of more than 100 towns and villages that encourage walkers to visit their areas by providing up-to-date planning options. It gives readers a link to individuals who can answer any questions and provide information on accommodation rates, local transportation options and suggestions for special needs.
