Vespucci Adventures was founded 8 years ago and is a trusted source for a great day's walking. Our beautifully packaged maps and guidebooks make a wonderful gift.

Vespucci Signature Hikes all have a good cafe near the start, a pub towards the end, great views and interesting places to see along the way. Most are directly accessible by train and public transport.

Our packs include an OS based map with the route superimposed upon it and a guidebook designed to give you everything you need to know for a great day out. Kit lists, names of pubs and cafes, hotels, taxis and descriptions of points of interest are all included. Every guidebook contains a "Plan B" if things start to go awry.

The gift of a Vespucci Hike is designed to inspire family friends or colleagues, including those less confident, to get outside on a self guided country walk.
