We’ve taken the best bits of an Intrepid adventure – the insider info and guidance of a local, support for local communities, small groups, memorable stays, and experiences you can’t have on your own – and rolled them up into a collection of short UK getaways.

Designed so you only unpack once, these trips give you the time to discover the specialties of a region and connect with yourself and the people you meet. Intrepid adventures have always had a local heart, now they’re just a bit more local to you. With themes including walking, cycling, family and wildlife - welcome to a new way to explore your own backyard.
