Action Outdoors, the UK arm of the not for profit UCPA, has launched its summer 2026 programme, combining its established all-inclusive mountain and coastal courses with a new range of guided multi-centre itineraries and an expanded selection of worldwide ‘Horizon’ (outside of France) destinations.

Holidays range from hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing and mountaineering to kitesurfing, surfing and multi-activity weeks, with courses available for all levels. New for 2026, guided itinerary trips offer a point-to-point approach across some of Europe’s most well-known routes, while the growing Horizon programme continues to expand beyond France into year-round destinations including Morocco, Egypt and Portugal.

Every holiday is all-inclusive, including accommodation (shared or twin rooms), three meals a day, equipment rental and instruction or guiding. Centres are designed to provide a social and informal atmosphere, with a wide range of activities available from a single base.

There are hundreds of Action Outdoors holidays across the summer in multiple centres – here is a selection highlighting new, expanded and core courses for 2026:
