Upland Escapes: Four Founding Principles
- To offer truly flexible walking for all. Providing our clients with all the advantages of a packaged holiday (expert planning and research, full support and advice etc), with no loss of independence (complete choice of what to do each day).
- To offer holidays that refresh both the body and mind – with the freedom to choose the amount of activity, culture, and social interaction enjoyed. The only constants are the magnificent views: landscapes to make the soul sing.
- To offer holidays that establish a connection between our clients and local ways of life.
- To respect, maintain and connect with the environments in which we operate, and to have only a positive impact upon them. The principles of sustainable tourism and environmental awareness are fundamental to the Upland Escapes experience, without which we could not and would not exist
