Coast and islands

Coastal & Island Treks

Routes along seas, lakes and volcanic landscapes — from the Atlantic cliffs of Pembrokeshire to Iceland's Laugavegur or the Mediterranean Menalon Trail in Arcadia. They combine natural coastal drama with more accessible logistics than high-alpine crossings.
