Introducing Trips in New Destinations from Michigan to the Faroe Islands, Egypt, Uruguay, Romania and More

 

September 15, 2026, Berkeley, Calif. — Backroads, the global leader in active travel, today announced the release of its 2027 flagshipcatalog, A Better Way to See the World, featuring pages of stunning photography paired with highlights from trip experts. The publication showcases the company’s more than 600 Hiking & Walking, Biking and Multi-Adventure Trips across the globe. Backroads runs small group active travel tours spanning seven continents, 68 countries, fiveCanadian provinces and 22 US states.

 

 

New for 2027, Backroads is introducing its first-ever adventures inEgypt, the Faroe Islands, Uruguay and Michigan, along with new itineraries in Italy, Poland and Slovakia, including a Parma to Verona & Venice Active Culinary Bike Tour. The company’s new trips in these iconic and emerging destinations are inspired by guest feedback, employee expertise and extensive field research, then carefully developed and continually refined to deliver the kind of active, high-quality, expertly supported journeys travelers value and have come to expect from Backroads.

 

“At Backroads we’re always seeking out new places, fresh perspectives and meaningful ways to experience the world actively,” said Tom Hale, Founder, President and CEO of Backroads. “Our 2027 catalog captures that spirit. Whether they’re dreaming about a first Backroads trip or planning a 50th, I hope travelers will dog-ear the pages in search of adventures that inspire them.”

 

Just as active travel encourages people to slow down and engage more deeply with a destination, Backroads’ annual catalog invites readers to linger over new places, stories and possibilities at their own pace. For guests, inspiration begins in the catalog and continues online with Backroads’ suite of helpful digital tools, from live chat, favoriting and trip comparison tools to streamlined online booking requests, all geared to make trip planning simpler, faster and more personalized.

 

 

Backroads’ catalog includes thousands of 2027 departure dates across new destinations and longtime favorites. As active travelers who embrace curiosity, cultural immersion and thoughtfully designed experiences continue to seek personal ways to explore with family and friends, demand for Backroads Private Trips has risen nearly 10 percent over 2025. Every trip featured in the catalog can also be reserved as a private departure, and groups of fewer than 12 guests may take advantage of Small Group Savings on select trips.

 

 

The new 2027 Backroads catalog is online now; physical copies can be requested by calling 800-462-2848 or making a request through the company’s website at https://discover.backroads.com/catalogs.
