holiday recommendation (sports related if poss).

[mintpoppet]

I have a couple of weeks to play with in August. Just me. Around £600 in the budget but could squeeze more for the right thing. This country or abroad. I'd like to do something that boosts my fitness but not a residential boot camp as I'm doing one of those later in the year with friends. Any ideas? I like the idea of a walking holiday but I'm not good with map reading and guided walks seem very expensive and I'd have to spend hours making small talk with random strangers! Thanks for any ideas.

I went on a Sunsail beginners sailing holiday in Greece. I had the time of my life. Everything was really well orgainsed, the food was fab and the staff were brilliant.

I've also been skiing alone, that was great too.

If you like the outdoors you could learn rock climbing. You can do that in the UK or abroad in the sun.

Still on my list is the Danube cycle route, which my friends rave about, just not had time to do it yet.
