Hike off into the sunset with these ramble-ready trips, where you’ll never walk alone.

Guided hiking trips around the globe are a great shout for solo travellers wanting to see the world safely, while taking the trail less trodden. Walks with local insider guides will literally take you off the beaten path, deep into the heart of each region. Imagine conquering Yosemite’s Sentinel Dome, hiking through the sands of the Sahara and exploring the Himalayas of Nepal with Everest looking over your shoulder. Looking for your next solo guided hike? These top trips are perfect for solo travellers.

Adventures in Sri Lanka are even better when travelling with a small group. On this 12-day singles-ready hiking tour, you’ll see much of the country, including both Minneriya National Park and Yala National Park. Guided treks cover you from heel to toe, taking you step by step through sites like the Sigiriya fortress and the Buddhas at Buduruwagala. When you need a break, you’ll find respite at a Ceylon tea estate and a private tea plantation in Kandy.
