You don't need to be Ray Mears or Bear Grylls, just gather the troops, strap on a comfy pair of shoes and come enjoy some of the best scenery the UK has to offer.

Whether you live in the north or south of the UK, there's an event you can join, with tours of Exmoor on Saturday 27 August and explorations of the Peak District National Park on Saturday 3 September. The whole family can relax and unwind in the company of local experts* who really know their stuff so it's the perfect opportunity to lace up your boots, get outside, and spend some quality time together. Not to mention the delicious homemade cake free to enjoy at the end of the day.

Those looking to explore what Exmoor has to offer can head to Holnicote House, located near the village of Selworthy in the heart of the Exmoor National Park. Taking place from 10am, visitors should get their selfie sticks at the ready, as they can enjoy a short six mile (10km) walk to the summit of Selworthy Beacon, which offers beautiful views over the Bristol Channel and Porlock Bay. 

If you'd prefer a day in the heart of England, head to the Peak District National Park. Bring your family and friends to HF Holidays' country house, The Peveril of the Peak for 10am and take advantage of a brilliant opportunity to make some lasting memories together. Take a five and a half mile (9km) walk across the limestone plateau, past the rocky outcrops of the Nabs to Dove Holes and along the river to the famous stepping stones at Dovedale Gorge.
