Muddy Boots Walking Holidays is a family run business offering walking holidays in the UK’s Yorkshire Dales. They offer several self-guided multi-day itineraries as well as guided day hikes. Their business may be new but their experience and story might persuade you to give them a try. We first saw them on Instagram and were immediately intrigued. If you’re an advocate for local-centric travel, booking a trip with a startup like Muddy Boots is the perfect way to support that.

They provide all the important walking details (including daily elevations) and excellent lodging details and links.
