Get Active in Europe’s Great Outdoors

From tall mountains to sparkling beaches to endless stretches of glorious countryside, Europe’s stunning scenery provides the perfect backdrop for the active vacation of a lifetime. 

Europe is renowned for its natural beauty and diversity. From north to south, European landscapes alternate between tall ice-capped mountains and long sandy beaches with glistening clear waters – and everything in between. If you’re seeking an active and adventurous escape to Europe, rest assured that JayWay will keep you busy and excited.

Enjoy The Best Outdoor Activities in Europe

The ideal weather conditions and diversity of its scenery render Europe a year-round slice of heaven on earth for any adventure lover. When it comes to the outdoor activities you can enjoy on an active vacation in Europe, the sky’s the limit. From easy hikes that reveal landscapes of unfathomable beauty at every turn to adrenaline-filled experiences, the selection is endless, regardless of the season you’re visiting Europe.

The Dolomites in Italy, this true masterpiece of nature, is the ideal place to go skiing in the winter or hiking in the summer. In Croatia and Greece, sailing or sea kayaking through emerald coves and picture-perfect islands take center stage when the temperatures increase. 

The Czech Republic, Austria, and Slovakia are criss-crossed with a rich network of well-marked hiking trails, while climbing the Via Ferrata in Slovenia is among the most fascinating off-the-beaten-path outdoor activities to add to your adventurous trip across Europe. 

Led by expert guides, the tours and outdoor activities we include in our itineraries promise an active vacation of adventure and unforgettable moments. Just let JayWay know your passion and our knowledgeable trip advisors will take it from there.
