Green landscapes

You’ll love the Dingle Peninsula, located on the western tip of Ireland. Rugged terrain, natural beauty and rich culture—it lies within a Gaeltacht, or Irish-speaking region—make this spot a must-visit for any adventurous walker.

Fragrant fields

Head to Provence in the summertime. Lavender blooms in this picturesque region of France from June through August each year, boasting beautiful, vibrant colors and filling the air with sweet smells.

Cliffside views

Try the Path of the Gods walk on Italy’s Amalfi Coast. This hike is not for those with a fear of heights—this winding mountaintop route is at least 1,400 feet above sea level—but the vistas it offers are worth every step.
