Why Not Walk

#Oxford, UK, is world-renowned for its ultra-prestigious university, beautiful scholarly architecture, and rich history. In addition to being an undoubtedly cool place to visit, we had a bit of an ulterior motive for our trip… 👀 As huge #LordOfTheRings fans, we were undertaking a pilgrimage of sorts, to the place that so shaped the genius of #JRRTolkien and served as his home for much of his life. #SpoilerAlert… we loved it! Check out our post at the #LinkInBio for all the best tips for a Tolkien themed Oxford weekend trip. . . . #lotr #tolkien #oxforduniversity #tolkienoxford #tolkienoxfordfacts #oxfordtourism

#RilaMonastery is the largest and most famous Eastern Orthodox monastery in Bulgaria and truly a cultural and spiritual treasure! 😍 Founded in the 10th century by Saint Ivan of Rila, a hermit (whose cave can still be visited nearby) canonized by the Orthodox Church, the monastery has played a crucial role in preserving Bulgarian culture and religion through the centuries 🇧🇬 Reconstructed after a fire in 1833, the monastery’s current buildings date largely from this period, and it was declared a #UNESCOWorldHeritageSite in 1983. This is an absolute must-visit while in #Bulgaria!

🇧🇬 Offering stunning alpine scenery and crystal-clear glacial lakes, paired with a chairlift, alpine lodge and lots of options for extensions, hikes, and vistas, no trip to #Bulgaria is complete without a visit to the #SevenRilaLakes 🏔️🚵🏿🚠🏞️ Easily accessible from the relaxing spa town of #SaparevaBanya, you can get there either by hiking up to the Rila Lakes Hut via the beautiful Skakavitsa Waterfall or by taking the ski lift from Panichishte to the 7 Lakes directly, then taking the trail length of your choice up to the panoramic views of the lakes. Check out our Bulgaria blog post in the #LinkInBio for more information, trail options, and tips, and stay tuned for more Bulgaria content coming up! 🇧🇬 . . . #bulgariatourism #bulgariaofficial #bulgarianmountains #bulgaria🇧🇬 #bulgarianature #rila #rilamountain #rilamountains #saparevabanyabulgaria #rilamountainbulgaria

Dreamy Cortina d’Ampezzo is the perfect jumping-off point for all manner of hikes in the Dolomites region 🥾 While it definitely gets busy, the town doesn’t feel like a tourist trap, and the surrounding mountains are too picturesque for words 😌 . . . #dolomiti #dolomites #dolomiteshiking #hikethedolomites #cortinadampezzo #cortinadolomiti #cortinadampezzodolomiti @comune_cortina_dampezzo @cortinadolomiti

Cadini di Misurina (Free version) | 14 km | Moderate to strenuous: The easiest way to get to some of the most gorgeous peaks on earth, the Cadini di Misurina, is to park at the Rifugio Auronzo lot, the jumping-off point for the Tre Cime di Lavaredo 🏔️ Parking here costs 30€, so we were eager to find an alternative 💸 While this hike is certainly tough, it's 100% worth it, and comes with a bonus Tre Cime view 🥾 Check out our Dolomites Hiking Guide for more info! . . . #trecimedilavaredo #trecime #cadinidimisurina #misurina #lagodimisurina #freeparking #lagodiantorno #dolomiti #dolomiteshiking #hikedolomites

Croda da Lago | 15 km | Moderate to strenuous: Not nearly as crowded as other trails in the area, Croda da Lago gives you great effort-to-views ratio and is a gorgeous introduction to the region 🥾While physically and technically challenging, it's a great length and includes a mountain lake, grassy alpine meadows, boulder scramble, and swoony wraparound views of the Dolomites 🏔️ Check out our Dolomites Hiking Guide for more info! 🤓 . . . #dolomiti #dolomites #italianalps #dolomitesunesco #dolomitesitaly #dolomitesmountain #cortinadampezzo #cortinadolomiti #hikedolomites #hikethedolomites #dolomiteshiking #crodadalago #lagofedera #rifugiofedera

#Prague is definitely one of the gems of Europe– and for good reason. Its picture-perfect city center is eminently walkable, having retained much of its historic charm (and largely spared during World War II.) 🇨🇿 Its compact size makes it easy to explore over the course of a weekend, and our weekender guide is live at the link in bio! ☀️ . . . #praguecastle #praguetoday #prague🇨🇿 #praguecity #praguelife #praguestagram #charlesbridge #lessertownprague #praguephoto #praguearchitecture #pragueart #weekendinprague #pragueweekend
