The pandemic created a huge rise in physical activity because of the numerous lockdowns, but it wasn’t just cycling and running that saw a significant uptake.
Action and adventure sports are becoming increasingly popular due to the excitement and adrenaline that people often get from doing them, and countries all across Europe have been making the most of this increased demand.
But if you are looking to explore your wild side while in Europe, where are you going to get the biggest choice for activities?

As part of their Adventure Index campaign, the broadband team at Uswitch, have analysed over 2000 adventure activities that can be done across 30 European countries, to determine the best location for adventure sports when you find yourself on the continent.
Taking the top spot with 687 different bookable activities was France.
Owing largely to its vast Alpine mountain reigns and over 2,000 miles of coastline, the country is the place to go if you are looking to try out canyoning, with nearly a third (29%) of all adventure activities in the country involving the sport.
