Walking Holidays Cornwall

Cornwall guided walking and hiking tours

Welcome to walkitcornwall. It’s another year of walking

Dates for 2024 are below.

Why walk with me? I’ll let others tell you. Google Reviews here Tripadvisor here

I’m looking forward to walking with you this coming year! 

My walking holidays are still bespoke, personal and for small groups. I want you to go on a holiday that I would like to be taken on. And I have very high standards with a sense of fun and adventure.

If you can imagine doing a lot but it’s chilled, then you’ve got it.

The programme of guided walking holidays are in Cornwall, on Dartmoor, on the Isles of Scilly and Corfu, Greece for 2024. 

Hello. I am Paul Simmons the owner and principal guide of walkitcornwall.

I’ve been leading guided walking holidays for 23 years and I like to tell stories about the interconnection between humanity and the landscape. We will scratch the surface of what makes Cornwall, and anywhere we walk, so unique. I’m also a musician, have an MA in Cornish Studies and am presently embarking on a PhD about walking. I love and live for walking, sharing my enthusiasm about piecing the stories together wherever we walk.

The holidays are informative and entertaining. That’s what walkitcornwall is all about. 

So who is this walkitcornwall guy?

For the Cornwall guided walking holidays check the days of arrival and departure. For a Monday start you can arrive Saturday or Sunday and depart the following Saturday. Why not stay longer?

Walks are normally Monday to Friday but the five days of walks start two days after the recommended arrival day.

If you can get a group together of 4+ on any other week of the year then ask and I might be able to put on a walking week for you.

Look at the dates for your preferred holiday and I can send you a pdf now.

A Personal Philosophy on Walking

Walking Blog

What does this walking guide think about when walking?

History is littered with anecdotes about creatives, scientists and philosophers having their Eureka moments, the defining link with the Muse or breakthrough thought that crowned their academic achievement. All this while walking. There is something about the symbiotic relationship between the physical movement of the body and the freeing up…

Welcome to the new website

  Welcome to the new website. The old website has been given a decent Viking funeral and I salute it that it has served me well for over a decade. After all, I have met and made life long friends with some of you who are reading this. I hope…

The destination or the journey?

The saying that crops up a lot "it's the journey not the destination" is the walkers equivalent of "size doesn't matter". In this day and age I am amazed at how often this comes up, and we all have done this. It is said, "well, I've got a couple of…

We keep coming back to walk with Paul. We've walked Cornwall, Corfu, Dartmoor and Menorca with him...and we are already planning our next walking holiday on the Isles of Scilly with walkitcornwall next year. Need I say more about the quality of the experience Paul offers. You enjoy walking, then walkitcornwall is the perfect partner to do so with.

If this sounds like a rave review, you are reading it right. Paul Simmons is a consummate group leader, and Corfu is simply magnificent in every respect.

In terms of walkitcornwall, I have been on many walking holidays & this was definitely one of the best in all aspects. Pre booking Paul had all information available & was happy to discuss & advise on any aspect of the trip.
