How to Add Soft Adventure to Your European Itinerary

5:43Tracy CollinsHOST
So what exactly is, if somebody hasn't heard about soft adventure, what does that include? What does it not include? What does it include? What is it?

5:54Lynne NiemanGUEST
So I like to classify soft adventure as, I guess some synonyms would be adventure light or gentle adventure.

6:02Lynne NiemanGUEST
So, you know, I always say like, if I say the word adventure, usually you think about like somebody like, you know, kayaking or whitewater rafting or hanging off a cliff or, you know, scaling a big peak or, you know, careening down a path on a mountain bike all in the, you know, in the kit and the helmet and everything.

6:25Lynne NiemanGUEST
Soft adventure is you may be taking a nice little gentle walk through, you know, a local park, you know, a forest or getting on a bicycle and just kind of taking an easy cycle, like along the Loire river, you know, and then stopping at a, stopping at a Chateau or a winery or one of the towns.

6:46Lynne NiemanGUEST
So it's, it's a way that it's it doesn't require like somebody to be like some uber physically fit person, not a lot of skill.

Now, are there any destinations, and I can't wait to hear what you're going to say about this question, I have to say, are there any destinations in Europe that particularly lend themselves to soft adventure that actually may surprise people, places they might not necessarily think of?
