Rail route of the month: cheese, chocolate and a magical ride to the Swiss town of Gruyères
via theguardian.comThe scenery – and delicacies – get better and better for our slow travel expert as she takes a local train through Canton Fribourg to a beautiful medieval villageIt was a handpainted sign on a wooden barn that piqued my interest in Gruyères. I was travelling from Emmental to Montreux last year, following the wonderful Golden Pass rail route. Our train paused at Montbovon, the start of a steep climb up to the line’s final dramatic mountain pass. There was the prospect of -
An alternative guide to Leeds: a city with an independent spirit

It’s like travelling back 700 years: healthy pleasures in rural Andalucía

The best tip wins £200 towards a Coolstays breakWe’re all familiar with the Scandinavian concept of hygge, which is all about hunkering down and staying cosy in winter.

Light fantastique: Paris through the eyes of the impressionists
via theguardian.comFrom Monet to Degas, the luminosity of Paris has inspired countless artists. As the city celebrates 150 years of impressionism it’s still shining brightParis is called the City of Light, possibly because of its early adoption of gas street lighting. But that would not explain why, as I approach Gare du Nord on Eurostar during daytime, I experience a soft dazzle, similar to when I see a pebbly beach. This is not a meteorological phenomenon; the weather in Paris is only slightly be -

I’ve written about France for 20 years – here are my favourite places to visit
via theguardian.comAfter a lifetime exploring the country’s cities, coast and countryside, our France expert chooses her personal highlightsWhen you can gaze on the salt pans of Guérande, near Nantes, cycle through lavender fields in Drôme, in the south-east, and bask in the splendour of the Cirque de Gavarnie in the Pyrénees, you have to wonder how France got so lucky with its diverse landscapes. Most recently, the volcanic landscape of the Massif Central captured my heart. The chain of -
Not just cheap beer and old buildings: an arty weekend in Prague
via theguardian.comA new sleeper train from Brussels is bringing the Czech capital’s contemporary art scene within easy reach of rail travellersFor decades, cheap flights, nightclubs and booze made Prague one of Europe’s stag party capitals. City officials have spoken out about tourists’ drunken behaviour, but Prague remains popular among men dressed as Smurfs drinking 50 koruna (£1.70) pints of pilsner.I arrive on the train from Dresden, the German city just north of the Czech border, shor -

‘This is the France you dream of’: readers’ favourite travel discoveries
via theguardian.comMedieval villages, secret alleyways and Charles de Gaulle’s retreat are just some of our tipsters’ French findsClimbing towards the basilica from the river, we explored a zigzag of secret staircases and hidden courtyards in Lyon. These traboules are hard to follow, and so we had to look out for the metal plates that mark some of the entrances. There’s almost no direct way up from the river, but these routes, originally for the city’s silk workers, reveal charming back str -

Connecting with my south-Asian roots on a traditional Indian yoga retreat in the UK
via theguardian.comOn a weekend break in rural Lincolnshire, the ‘smiling yogi’ takes this ancient practice back to its origins, with an emphasis on mantras and mindfulnessOften when I’ve turned up at various yoga studios in London, the groups I’ve encountered have been overwhelmingly white, svelte and middle class. Perhaps I’ve not found the right class, but as a south Asian woman, it always felt like I was in somebody else’s space.Yoga originated in ancient India, and I wanted -
In the company of wolves and kings: Suffolk’s new medieval cycle trail
via theguardian.comThe Wolf Way – a magnificent, not too hilly, cycling route – takes in the county’s myths, market towns and Gainsborough landscapesIt was an inauspicious start. Having cycled no more than a few metres, from the steps of the Angel hotel into the grounds of St Edmundsbury Cathedral, I fell off my bike.I blamed the wolf: in dismounting to take its photo, I had kicked my own pannier and sent myself sprawling. The good passersby of Bury St Edmunds came to my (embarrassed) aid. Saint -

So long Cornwall, Cheddar and the Cotswolds: discover the UK ‘destination dupes’ to beat the crowds

This trend has swept TikTok (of course), and has now extended into the realm of travel. The idea is to exch -

It’s wildly romantic. “People get engaged here all the time,” Ivano says -
