Adventure gets sold to us as faster, harder, higher. In this week's Tracy chats with Lynne Nieman, founder of Wander Your Way and Wander Your Way Adventures, about soft adventure travel in Europe and why gentle can be the most memorable way to explore.
What soft adventure means and what it avoids
Why Europe's countryside and small towns make travel feel more connected
Simple ways to add a short walk to a city-based itinerary
Using local tourism boards and information centres to find easy routes
AllTrails and helpful keywords such as family walks and discovery walks
Soft adventure spots that surprise people, from England's footpaths to accessible Dolomites trails
What to carry for gentle walks, including water, rain jacket, phone, map photo and charger
How small group tours reduce planning stress and add local guiding, meals and logistics
Lynne's Hadrian's Wall walking tour coming in 2027
