Celtic Trails is a small family-run company based in Wales offering tailored self-guided walking holidays. They were the first to offer self-guided walking holidays in Wales and with 25 years of experience they are our Local Choice for walking holidays in Wales. Most of their selections are in the UK but they also offer a small selection of routes throughout Europe.
Review of Celtic Trails Website
The Celtic Trails site is easy to navigate and has one of the best designed websites for searching. You can browse or search by country, difficulty level, month, length of stay and price. They offer an impressive list of filters, allowing you to narrow your search by the following categories:
- Coastal
- Historical
- National Trails or National Parks
- UNESCO World Heritage or Areas of Outstanding Beauty
- Beginners Walks
- Island Walks
- Mountains, Coast to Coast or River
- Literary
- Single Center or Pilgrim
- and more!
For trip details, distances are given in miles and kilometers, ascent/descent is mentioned for mountain walks, and they provide links to transportation, customer reviews and info about local points of interest. We would love to see more lodging details (photos or examples) and day-to-day summaries (like they provide for the non-UK trips). We suggest following their social media accounts as they’re consistently active and often share photos from customers.
