Loads of our guests come walking dressed in Berghaus products. It seems like they've been around for ever but it's only been 40 years since they came onto the scene with a range of high quality high quality walking boots and shoes. Since then Berghaus has developed into an important international brand and this British company sells a full range of outdoor products from boots to waterproof jackets and T-shirts to stylish rucksacks.

Like us, Minorca Sailing use the enchanting port of Fornells as a base for their specialist sailing holidays. We often bump into satisfied customers who tell us about their day, learning how to handle a boat in the beautifull harbour. Minorca Sailing cater for all levels of sailing and windsurfing. Their guests benefit from fully qualified tuition and coaching and like ourselves, offer both apartment and hotel accommodation. Unusually for this type of company they also provide creche facilities for young children. From personal testimony, we are pleased to recommend Minorca Sailing.

We are very keen to promote british made, high quality walking products and Altberg have some of the best. Altberb are a traditional Yorkshire bootmaker who make an excellent range of walking boots in 5 different width fittings. They also offer a custom fitting service at their factory in Richmond, North Yorkshire. For a full range of Altberg stockists, click here. Altberg boots are maybe a little more expensive than some of the brands that you may see on the high street. However as walking guides we feel that quality is always worth paying for, especially where our guests comfort and safety are concerned.

We lose count of how many times we see a Regatta label during the average walking season. It seems that nearly all of our guests wear one or other of the Regatta range.The 2007 range, which oozes class and style, includes, waterproofs, fleeces, base layers, bodywarmers and a whole range of sweat shirts and t-shirts. One of the things that we really like about the Regatta brand is that it is designed for men, women and children and is available in plenty of different sizes. Regatta also manufacture high end walking, treking and travelling footwear, which are designed for all walking conditions.

Whilst we offer holidays of the two legged variety, we have to admit that cycling can be great fun as well. Many of our guests have been on cycling holidays with these guys and have told us what a good time they have had. Their cycling trips are designed to cater for all levels - for the first time cycle tourist, leisure cyclist, to the most experienced cycle tourist. Much like Menorca Walking Holidays, Freedom Treks take care of all the details, leaving you to have fun.

Our guests often ask us what type of footwear they should bring on their walking holiday. The answer of course is that everyone is different, that different shoes and boots suit different people and that much depends on the walking terrain. The Adventure Centre publish this walking boot guide and we really like it. This site does not mention any particular brands but gives the potential purchaser advice across a whole range of criteria and helping him or her find the boot that is right for them. We would strongly recommend visiting The Adventure Centre site before buying your next walking footwear.

Booked a singles walking holiday and not sure if you will be up to the physical activity? If so these guys could be the solution. Events Together organise walking and scrambling weekends for people who like to walk and meet new and interesting people at the same time. They offer a short but inclusive weekend programme in both mountain and country environments. Much like ourselves, their walking weekends are to be enjoyed not endured and would be ideal preparation if you were thinking about coming walking on Menorca during the next 12 months. Aside from the walking, Events together also organise other events for single people such as, sailing, caving and skiing along with multi-activity weekends.

We came across the Hillscape walking holidays site and liked it a lot. They offer self guided walking holidays based from a delightfull guest house in The Ystwyth Valley. Richard and Anne who run the company seem like a nice couple and offer over 40 self guided routes with various degrees of difficulty. Menorca Walking Holidays takes a break during July and August due to the hot weather. If however like a lot of people you can only get away during this time of year, we strongly recommend this part of Wales as a walking destination and Hillscape as the people to show it to you.

Many of our guests having enjoyed their time walking on Menorca ask us if we can suggest somewhere else to go for their next holiday. Often we recommend one of our partners on this page. However sometimes our guests are looking for a choice of destinations and activities which makes it difficult for us to give advice with confidence. This was until we came across Golden Gap years who plan alternative activity holidays for the over 40's. The Golden Gap website is easy to use and offers a full choice of holidays, ranging from water and winter sports, walking, golf and new skill learning breaks. If you are struggling to find the holiday that is right for you, click on the logo above and it will take you directly to the Golden Gap website

We have a lot of experience walking with people intheir 50's and 60's and it is fair to say that they have a differnt outlook on life from their counterparts from the previous generation. This age group now is now more demanding, has a longer life expectancy and likes to live life to the full.

We found Laterlife.com and immediately connected with its aims and objectives. Laterlife.com contains a wealth of reference information, features and ideas, to help enjoy laterlife to the full.

We offer our guests a free day every week which can be used as an excuse to go shopping, lay by the pool or generally relax. Another fun alternative might be to visit Golf Son Parc which is situated close by to all of our holiday accommodation. Son Parc, recently extended to 18 holes by renowned golf architect Dave Thomas, is the only course on Menorca and offers attractively priced day golf packages which include both club and buggy hire. After a round of golf in the sunshine, you may wish to partake of cold refreshments in the bar or even lunch on the bright spacious terrace which is situated close to the 18th green. We have found the staff at Son Parc to be friendly and helpful and, we are happy to recommend them to Menorca Walking Holidays guests.
