City walk

A cultural voyage of discovery

With each one boasting a unique history, architecture, art scene, cultural venues, and shopping opportunities, cities have something for everyone - and with Outdooractive, you can discover and explore the best sights, events, and downtown areas out there. You may even find a few surprises along the way.   Unlike traditional hiking, the best thing about exploring a city on foot is that you don't need to take much with you, as a choice of restaurants, bars, cafes, and stores means you can always grab a bite to eat, enjoy a drink, or caffeinate yourself at your leisure.

Explore the most beautiful cities on your own

Sightseeing to suit you

 

Even if you've never been on a guided tour in a city, chances are you've certainly seen them.  They most often entail trailing around behind someone for hours or riding in an open-top bus with a running commentary, and while many find them a convenient way to get to know a city, they're certainly not for everyone.   

Fortunately, with Outdooractive, it doesn't always have to be like this, as exploring on your own has never been easier. You can go sightseeing at your own pace and pick what you want to experience based on your interests. That being said, it is still possible to accidentally miss out on some sights without that bit of extra guidance. That's why City Walks from Outdooractive are here to help, offering routes and maps you can easily navigate, along with points of interest conveniently displayed on your device.

Use the Outdooractive Route Finder to search for a specific city or region and filter for 'City Walking' under the 'Hiking' category - you may well be surprised by what's out there. From the  'Cartoon Walk' in Argentina to San Francisco's Fisherman´s Wharf, a City Tour through old Jerusalem, or the Charleston Food Tour, there's no shortage of things to discover. 

Experience history and culture up close

Sights around the globe

Every city has its own unique character, history, and attractions. Some may showcase modern vibes, while others are steeped in ancient charm. With Outdooractive, you can customize your experience to match your interests and explore what each city is famous for. Prefer museums, galleries, theaters, and stunning architecture? We've got you covered. More into restaurants, bars, clubs, and shopping? No problem at all.

Exploring with Ourdooractive

Things you might want to take

While you don't really need a lot of gear, exploring a city is a lot more comfortable if you have at least the basics with you. Things we would recommend include... 

  • A lightweight daypack (approx. 15 liters) with a rain cover
  • Comfortable shoes (definitely a must!)
  • Clothes suitable for the weather
  • Sun and rain protection
  • A bottle of water
  • Your device
  • A camera (unless you're just taking phone snaps)

Obviously this all varies depending on where you are and how long you plan to be out.
