Hit book and see a new side of the United Kingdom that’s older than all of the castles in the land.

Everyone remembers their first visit to London, but it’s easy to forget that the United Kingdom is way more than its capital city. Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland are four diverse faces of one stunning country. Trade a rail pass for a pair of hiking boots and explore the rugged cliffs, serene swimming holes and lesser-visited parts of the isles that put you face-to-face with unspoiled nature. These are the top TRIPS by Culture Trip showcasing the finest of the UK.

It’s about time you get to know the wilds of Devon. This stunning county stands arm-in-arm with both the Bristol Channel and the English Channel, creating an outdoor playground ripe for adventure. Get those muscles loosened up from head to toe as you swim, kayak, hike and cycle your way between the two waterways. Tackle the Tarka Trail’s old railway line and wade in the ethereal Sharrah Pool, accessible only by foot. Those out of breath just reading this should note that a stop for afternoon tea is always an option.
