It all began with a simple idea: explore the world actively, with passion and commitment on the "road less traveled."  With this guiding principle, Country Walkers ended up changing the face of active travel.  In 1979, we launched the company from an old barn in Vermont. Although we were small (and our office space "rustic"), our passion for the beautiful landscape of the surrounding Green Mountains became contagious.  Soon we expanded our brand of travel from local to international destinations, discovering new and exotic lands around the world.

In 2009 our paths lead to adventure, with 75 worldwide walking itineraries.  Every trip is designed to offer the best of a locale; we walk the trails the locals walk, eat the foods they eat, and encounter the sea and sky that embrace their homelands.  As we continue to grow, our commitment to responsible tourism remains constant.  Walking, of course, is low-impact travel and environmentally sound.  We continue our “best sustainability practices,” supporting local initiatives and programs.
