Since 1985, we have gone to great lengths to find inns that offer all around excellence, but still retain their own distinctive style and charm. Some offer luxury and elegance, some more modest surroundings with the warmth and charm that you find only at a country inn. Meals range from French cuisine by candlelight in renowned restaurants to some of the best home-cooking we have ever tasted served up at fireside tables. Just exploring the different rooms at the inns is an experience. At many of the inns there is swimming and tennis as well as beautiful grounds.
Comfort is one of our foremost concerns in picking our resting spots.
In this website you can read more about all the inns that we will visit this year. If you have questions about a particular inn, please just give us a call. If they have not already done so, the guides will go over the hiking activities for the day. We leave the inn around 9 either on foot or by van to the start of the trail. After lunch, we will offer a choice of easier or harder routes, so that you can decide, for instance, to hike up a peak or perhaps return along the valley.
