Walk at a relaxed pace, often spending time at places of interest en-route. Walking experience isn’t necessary as distances are quite short and gradients generally easy. Good paths but walks are a bit longer. Walks follow well-defined paths, though often in hilly or upland areas, or along rugged coastal footpaths. Long distances in remote countryside and on rough terrain. Expect rocky terrain with sustained ascents and descents. Our most challenging walks where high levels of fitness and stamina are required.

Easy Access: Walks for everyone, including people with conventional wheelchairs and pushchairs, using easy-access paths.
Easy: Walks for anyone who does not have a mobility difficulty, a specific health problem or is seriously unfit.
Leisurely: Walks for reasonably fit people with at least a little country walking experience.
Moderate: Walks for people with country walking experience and a good level of fitness.

Walk Level 1 is an Easy walk that involves flat surfaces with good footing and mild inclines. Walk Level 2 is Easy/Moderate, with walks that are eight to ten miles a day with five to six hours of walking in total. Walk Level 3 is Moderate, stepping up the pace a little, with the same kind of miles and hours as a Level 2, but on more difficult terrain. Walk Level 4 is Moderate/Energetic, covering eight to 16 miles a day, walking for five to six hours over varying terrain, with ascents and descents.
There is also a Walk Level 5, but the question asks for the 4 levels of walking, which are: Walk Level 1, Walk Level 2, Walk Level 3, and Walk Level 4.

Activity Level 1 is ideal for those new to walking trips.
The pace will be easy, and the itinerary often includes some half-day walks to allow for visits or free time.
Expect two to four hours of walking per day on easy paths, with some minor ascent or descent.
Activity Level 2 expect generally easy trails, but with some ascent and descent on most days.
Activity Level 3 the inclusion of more hilly or even mountainous terrain makes this grade suitable for fit and frequent hikers.
Activity Level 4 an adventure made for experienced hikers and hill walkers with good fitness, normally in mountainous terrain and sometimes at altitude with varied and occasionally challenging conditions underfoot.
The four levels of walking are described as Easy, Easy and Moderate, Moderate, and Moderate and Challenging, which are represented by Activity Levels 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively.
These levels consider walking distance, elevation gain and the trail conditions, plus altitude where necessary.
Each level has its own specifications regarding the average and maximum distance and elevation gain per day.
These specifications help determine the intensity of the walking activity.
