Introduction
There are countless natural wonders in Europe, a continent filled with natural beauty worth taking the time to discover.
Corsica, a mountain range rising out of the Mediterranean is ruggedly good looking; The Plitvice Lakes National Park in Croatia features 16 interconnected lakes and around 100 waterfalls; The Northern Lights, visible in Finland provide a swirling, surreal show; France is full of gorges, rivers and mountain ranges; The Meteora Rock Pinnacles in Greece rise above the valley and support precariously perched orthodox monasteries.
Geysers and hot springs are testament to Iceland's explosive past whilst the dolomites in Italy present a diverse selection of landscapes full of natural pinnacles, spires and sculpted towers. The Durmitor National Park in Montenegro boasts clear lakes and dense pine forests; the fjords in Norway are impressively sheer-sided, whilst the Lofoten Islands are a breath-taking archipelago offshore.
The Bialowieza Forest in Poland is a reminder of the wooded landscape that would have covered much of Europe at one time and there are countless dramatic mountainscapes in the Swiss Alps, although the Matterhorn retains the power to silence viewers. Tenerife in turn is home to some impressive volcanoes, whilst Turkey boasts dramatic landscapes in Cappadocia.
These are just a handful of the options available though. You can also tailor-make your natural world holiday in Europe by adding a city stay or excursion to your itinerary; talk to a destination specialist to see what we can do for you.
