And, as countries in Europe are relatively close together, you can visit several of them in one trip. This may prove to be a little hectic, though, so consider adding in some stops along the way to de-stress.
England
Check out the English countryside on foot. Walking is a great way to keep fit for everyone and when done in the presence of nature it can also be quite meditative. Stop and smell the (English) roses for comfort. Foot Trails – Walking England’s Rural Canvas.
