Britain’s 10 Best Winter Walks

by campervan and motorhome.

Winter is a magical time to explore Britain’s scenic beauty, with snow-capped peaks (I know my photo isn’t snow-capped, I took it this month walking Eryi/Snowdonia), frost-kissed forests, and tranquil countryside paths. Here are ten of the best winter walks across the UK, along with advice for winter walking and why hiring a campervan or motorhome can enhance your adventure.

1. Snowdonia, Wales – Llyn Idwal Walk

Your locally hired campervan and motorhome is your base and allows you to explore other trails in Snowdonia.

2. Lake District, England – Catbells

Description: A relatively easy walk offering panoramic views over Derwentwater and the surrounding fells, ideal for a crisp winter day. Winter Advice: Start early to avoid shorter daylight hours.

4. Peak District, England – Mam Tor

Description: A popular walk offering breathtaking views over the Hope Valley. The path can be icy but manageable with care. Winter Advice: Check the weather for wind warnings, as Mam Tor is known for strong gusts. Bring a headlamp for any low-light conditions. Hiring a motorhome or campervan allows you to stay in the area and explore more of the Peak District’s walks at your leisure. Enjoy the convenience of cooking a hot meal post-hike.

5. Brecon Beacons, Wales – Pen y Fan

Hiring a campervan gives you the freedom to find the perfect starting point for your hikes.

7. Yorkshire Dales, England – Malham Cove

Description: A relatively easy walk with dramatic limestone scenery. The stepped ascent can be slippery in winter. Winter Advice: Take your time on the steps and consider using walking poles. The paths may be muddy after rain. Base your camper or motorhome in the Yorkshire Dales and explore nearby walks like Gordale Scar and Janet’s Foss.

General Winter Walking Advice

  1. Check the Weather: Winter weather can be unpredictable, especially in the mountains. Always check the forecast and be prepared to change plans if conditions are unsafe.
  2. Wear Appropriate Clothing: Dress in layers, including waterproof and windproof outer layers. A hat and gloves are essential. You can always take a layer off, but if you don’t have it to start with, you cannot put it on. Always prepare for the worst weather.
  3. Use Proper Footwear: Sturdy, waterproof boots with good grip are a must. Consider using gaiters, crampons, or microspikes for icy terrain.
  4. Carry Essentials: A map, compass, headlamp, first aid kit, an emergency bivvy bag, a portable phone battery charger and a fully charged phone are vital. Bring snacks and a flask of a hot drink. If you are relying on your watch or phone for directions using GPX or similar or even a hiking satnav, it is recommended you still carry a map and compass – just in case.
  5. Plan for Short Days: Start early, as daylight is limited in winter. Always carry a headlamp or torch in case you finish after dark.

Why Hire a Campervan or Motorhome?

  1. Comfort and Convenience: After a day of walking in cold conditions, returning to a warm campervan with cooking facilities and a comfortable bed is a luxury.
  2. Flexibility: Stay close to your chosen walking routes and avoid the hassle of daily travel and accommodation changes.
  3. Self-Sufficiency: Carry all your gear, food, and supplies with you. This is especially useful in remote areas where amenities may be limited.
  4. Adaptability: If weather conditions change or a trail is closed, you can easily move to another location without needing to cancel your plans.

Hiring a campervan or motorhome transforms your winter walking trip into a flexible, comfortable, and unforgettable experience.

Family and friends coming to stay at Christmas?

There are several advantages over why they should hire a motorhome, instead of staying in your home.

As lovely as it is having them over, it is even better if they have their own space:-

1. Extra Space and Privacy:

A motorhome provides a separate living space, allowing guests their privacy and ensuring you have your own space. This reduces the likelihood of household tension during extended stays at such a hectic time.

2. Freedom and Flexibility:

Your guests can move around, explore, or stay at different places while still having their accommodation with them. This offers a sense of adventure and variety that staying in a single home doesn’t provide.

3. Avoids Overcrowding:

During Christmas, homes can become crowded with extra family members, luggage, presents and the general hustle of Christmas activities. A motorhome keeps the overflow outside your house, keeping your space more comfortable.

4. Self-Contained Facilities:

Motorhomes come equipped with bathrooms, kitchens, and living spaces, so guests can be more independent. This reduces the demand on your household facilities like bathrooms or kitchens, especially useful during busy Christmas mornings.

5. Cost-Effective Alternative to Hotels:

Rather than booking multiple hotel rooms or larger Airbnb, hiring a motorhome can be a more affordable option, especially for longer stays. Plus, it offers the added benefit of accommodation plus transportation in one.

If you’re looking to hire a motorhome or campervan locally, there really is only one to consider and with five branches in England and Scotland, you are never too far from an Easicamper:

Each site offers a wide selection of motorhomes and campervans suitable for an exciting and lovely family Christmas.

Try Before You Buy: Affordable and Competitive Motorhome Hire with Easicampers

Dreaming of hitting the open road, exploring scenic landscapes, and enjoying the freedom of travel? For many, owning a motorhome represents the ultimate adventure. However, investing in a motorhome is a significant commitment, both financially and in terms of lifestyle. That’s where the concept of “try before you buy” comes in. Renting a motorhome before making a purchase allows you to test the waters, ensuring that the reality lives up to the dream. And when it comes to renting quality motorhomes for trial runs, Easicampers emerges as the go-to choice. Let’s delve into why renting before buying might be the smartest move you make on your journey to motorhome ownership.

The Benefits of Trying Before Buying:

  1. Explore Different Models: Motorhomes come in various shapes, sizes, and layouts, each catering to different preferences and needs. Renting allows you to experience firsthand what it’s like to travel in different models, helping you determine which one best suits your lifestyle and requirements.
  2. Evaluate Features and Amenities: From kitchen facilities to sleeping arrangements, our motorhomes offer a range of amenities. Renting allows you to assess the functionality and comfort of these features, ensuring they align with your expectations before making a purchase.
  3. Understand Maintenance Needs: Owning a motorhome involves regular maintenance and upkeep. Renting provides valuable insight into the maintenance requirements of different models, helping you gauge the level of maintenance you’re comfortable with.
  4. Test Your Travel Style: Whether you prefer spontaneous road trips or meticulously planned itineraries, renting a motorhome allows you to test your travel style without the long-term commitment of ownership. This firsthand experience can help you refine your travel preferences and priorities.
  5. Financial Considerations: Buying a motorhome is a significant financial investment. Renting with easicampers allows you to hire a affordable motorhome whilst you assess whether the cost of ownership aligns with your budget and lifestyle without the upfront financial commitment.
