hiking tours

Organized walking excursions

Hiking tours are guided excursions on foot through natural terrain, typically led by someone familiar with the trails and local features.

They range from casual day walks to multi-day treks with overnight accommodations: We booked a hiking tour through the Swiss Alps.

The term emphasizes the organized, often commercial nature of the experience—distinguishing it from independent hiking.
