Four shapes a trip can take

Every one of these is adapted from work we have already delivered. None of them is fixed — they are starting points, and the good version is always the one we build around you.

The people really make the trip.

iAnchor Trips

Five to seven days that set the season

The centrepiece. Long enough to find a rhythm, short enough that nobody has to clear a month. Riding in the mornings, the place itself in the afternoons, and every table booked before you land.

7 itineraries
Mediterranean Spring
Spain · Mallorca

Five riding days from the coast — gravel tracks and farm roads before the summer heat, with the water and the golf course filling the afternoons.

5–7 days · Apr–early Jun
Alpine Autumn
Italy · Dolomites

September in the high valleys: clear days, quiet trails, and the landscape turning. Riding-forward, with high-altitude golf available and never mandatory.

5–7 days · Sept–Oct
The Estate Weekend
Italy · Umbria

A castle, a vineyard, a truffle hunt, and three mornings of riding through cypress country. The trip for people with four days, not ten.

4 days · Apr–Oct
The Lake Classic
Italy · Lake Como

Rides that finish in towns reached by boat, two rounds at one of Europe’s oldest clubs, and dinner across the water.

5 days · May–Sept
Riviera, Before the Season
France · Var coast

Based above Saint-Tropez, with a day on a car-free island explored entirely by bike and on foot through vineyards and protected beach.

5–6 days · Apr–Jun
The Highland Sporting Week
Scotland · Cairngorms

A Victorian lodge in a national park, ancient pine forest riding, a lunch in a restored bothy, and a top-100 links within reach.

5–6 days · May–Sept
Elemental
Iceland

Volcanoes, glaciers, geothermal water, open space. High impact without a year of runway — a season’s notice is plenty.

5–7 days · Jun–Sept
iiMicro-Adventures

One or two nights, no logistics

For the week you cannot leave but need to. Close to home, short notice, and held to exactly the same standard as anything with a flight attached.

6 itineraries
The Home Weekend
Connecticut · Litchfield Hills

From our own hills — Winvian or the Belden House, long walks and gravel mornings through protected land, and dinner worth staying in town for.

1–2 nights
Quintessential Vermont
Vermont

Dirt roads, swimming holes, a proper inn, and foliage that earns the drive. Riding if you want it — the state does the rest.

1–2 nights
High Peaks & Lakes
New York · The Adirondacks

Six million acres of protected park behind an Olympic village — lake mornings, ridge walks, and quiet double track deep in the woods.

1–2 nights
The Blue Ridge
Virginia · Shenandoah

Overlooks above the fog line, valley farm roads, and a lodge dinner at the end of it. An easy hop from the mid-Atlantic.

1–2 nights
The Border Table
Québec · Eastern Townships

Montréal’s countryside — wine, cider, and farm-table cooking with rolling gravel through it. Ninety minutes and a passport, and you’re somewhere else entirely.

1–2 nights
The Carriage Roads
Maine · Acadia

Rockefeller’s crushed-gravel byways past stone bridges and ocean overlooks, car-free the whole way, with a harbor lunch to close.

1–2 nights
iiiAdd-Ons

Movement layered onto travel you already have

You are already going. We add the morning — a route, a ridge walk, a tee time, a boat, a guide — without touching a single thing you had planned.

The Layered Day
Anywhere you’re already going

You have the trip. We add the movement — a morning route, a guide, a bike or a boat waiting — without reshaping a single thing you had planned.

Per itinerary
Desert Mornings
California · Palm Springs

Short rides in the surrounding desert that fit around the spa and the tee time instead of competing with them.

Add-on
Estate Gravel
Scotland · Perthshire

Scenic off-road across an estate and the countryside beyond, pairing with golf and time on property.

Add-on
ivExpeditions

The long ones, planned a year out

Where scale is the point and the planning window is measured in seasons. These live in the Blueprint’s future-ideas section until a year comes along that fits.

5 itineraries
The Driest Desert
Chile · Atacama

Salt flats, active geysers, a private oasis lunch, and stargazing with an astronomer at altitude. No golf. That is the point.

7+ days · Mar–May, Sept–Nov
Coastal Farmland
New Zealand · Northland

Six thousand acres above the Pacific — native forest riding, a beach picnic from the lodge kitchen, and a course ranked inside the world’s top forty.

8+ days · Dec–Feb
The Considered Route
Japan · Kyoto to the Alps

Temples, ryokan, and mountain roads — culture first, movement woven through. Best planned a year out.

10+ days · Apr–May, Oct–Nov
Wind and Ice
Patagonia

Vast and elemental, shaped by scale rather than density. Best approached as a long, intentional journey.

10+ days
Ice-Fjord Scale
Greenland

Heli-supported days among the fjords — a hard place made genuinely comfortable, for travellers who want the edge of the map.

6–8 days · Jun–Aug

Tell us who’s travelling
and what a good day looks like.

That is genuinely the whole brief. We come back with a shape for the trip — or for the year — within a few days.

The Dispatch

Hotels worth knowing, tables worth booking, and when to actually go.

Once a month, from the field. The timing calls and the places we’d send a friend — the same notes that go into our clients’ guidebooks.
