This company's trips are mini hiking expeditions: clients carry their own packs, travel via public transportation, and stay in small inns and mountain huts throughout Europe. Unlike many hiking outfitters, Distant Journeys doesn't use support vans, which infuses its trips with the spontaneity European travelers have known for centuries. At the end of the day of a day on, say, Switzerland's Haute Route, you'll bunk down at whatever accommodation presents itself.
