One of the most 'walkable' cities in Europe is 'hidden gem'
Travel experts have revealed the top 10 'most walkable' cities worldwide in 2025 - and a staggering six of them can be found on the continent
If you're looking for a serene holiday where you can explore the sights on foot and leave the stress of driving parking at home, this one city has been highlighted as one of the friendliest for car-free travellers.
If you're yet to decide on where to go this year, travel gurus at Skyscanner have just the thing: their list of the top 10 "most walkable" cities across the globe for 2025, with an impressive six located in Europe.
This index ranks cities based on how easy it is to amble from one famous landmark to another, alongside criteria such as the sheer number of pedestrian routes through the city.
Taking the crowning spot for worldwide walkability is a stunning historical gem nestled in Andalusia's embrace - Cordoba, Spain. With the shortest average footpath between attractions among the leading ten cities, Cordoba is lauded by Skyscanner as "a wonderful city to visit and explore on foot". This enchanting city has a rich heritage as a Roman municipality and later, a pivotal Islamic hub during medieval times.
Visitors can tour the main attractions in Cordoba in 26 minutes (Image: (Image: Getty))Today, Cordoba lures visitors with its astonishing mosque-cathedral La Mezquita and the labyrinthine Old Town, both recognised as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, perfect for meandering through its snaking alleys. Explorers can also marvel at Palacio de Viana, delve into the historic Jewish quarter known as La Juderia, and lose themselves in the Alcazar de los Reyes Cristianos, reports the Express.
You'll need just 26 minutes - that's about 2730 steps - to traverse the main tourist spots, plus there are 29 scenic walking trails threading around the city for those who want to delve deeper.
One visitor on Tripadvisor said: "Cordoba was built before cars, so your taxi will probably not be able to take you to the door, but once you are there, you will be able to walk everywhere. It's a good idea to start at the Roman Bridge, go over and see the models in the Torre de la Calahorra, in particular the model of the original mosque, before you visit the Mesquita, and walk around the narrow streets. Lots of bars, restaurants, shops, museums. The Jewish Quarter is also worth seeing."
Wander through the streets of Cordoba to find "hidden gems" as described by visitors (Image: (Image: Getty))Another said: "There is lots to see and do around the many cobbled streets. Lots of cafes, quaint bars, shops, tapas bars and restaurants. Don't be afraid to wander down little alleys, as this is where the hidden gems lie. It's a fantastic couple of days, but wear sensible, comfy shoes as all those cobbles take their toll on your knees and feet."
A third visitor shared: "The restaurants we ate at were reasonably priced, not gouging prices like in other cities. In short, for beauty, history, outstanding city design [long, walkable parks], and kind people - Cordoba is your choice. It really amazed us."
Topping the list of walkable cities, the captivating Spanish city of Cordoba has found favour among travellers, with Nagasaki in Japan nipping at its heels. Boasting the lowest crime rate amongst the top 10 cities, Nagasaki offers 531 attractions and is remarkably flat with an average elevation of only 89 metres.
When eyeing up Cordoba's European counterparts, Italy and Monaco have made the cut thanks to their compact city centres filled with numerous attractions.
