Where will your next hike take you?

Footfalls Walking Holidays are Ireland’s leading provider for walking tours. It was founded in 1994 by Christopher and Teresa Stacey, who both wanted to share their love and interest in the great outdoors with others so started guiding individuals and groups in the Wicklow Mountains. 

Haven't found your ultimate hiking holiday?

Treat yourself to one of our private, customised walking tours of Ireland, Wales, Scotland, or the Lake District in England. Private walking tours allow you to choose the dates that suit your schedule while visiting the destinations that intrigue you most.

Fancy a multi-day adventure along the Wild Atlantic Way? Or perhaps a shorter excursion in beautiful Wicklow? Whatever distance you want to hike and wherever you hope to travel in Ireland or the UK, our decades of experience will help you plan the perfect getaway.

Today, Footfalls Walking Holidays attracts customers from all over the world, offering guided and self-guided walking tours to almost every corner of Ireland, as well as walking tours in Scotland, Wales, England, and the iconic Camino de Santiago in Spain.

What an incredible weekend at The Wicklow Walking Festival! Despite the rain, we had an amazing turnout and enjoyed some unforgettable hikes. Stories were shared, music filled the air, new friendships were forged, and laughter echoed off the hills. This is the true spirit of exploring the great outdoors ❤️A heartfelt thank you to The Glenmalure Lodge for their outstanding hospitality throughout the weekend! And a special thanks to David, Tom, Robert, and Ciarán for their exceptional leadership and guidance over the weekend.#glenmalurelodge #wicklowwalkingfestival #outdooradventures#footfallswalkingholidays #wicklowmountains #thewicklowway See MoreSee Less
