If you enjoy nature and taking long walks at your local state park then maybe you should consider going on a hiking adventure. There are lots of places to choose from and the level of exertion is completely up to you. Spread your travels out to include casual hikes over several days or decide to go trekking in the Himalayas for two weeks.

Hiking Across the USA

The United States is a beautiful place in which to spend time hiking. Colorado, Montana and Wyoming all have hiking trails that meander through popular National Parks such as Yellowstone where you can catch a glimpse of Old Faithful. You can discover dinosaur fossils, quietly sit back and observe elk, bear and several types of deer who might share the same path with you.

Northern California offers trekkers trails that lead into forests filled with Giant Redwoods as old as the land itself. Hawaii is a rugged and wonderland spot for some serious hiking.

United Kingdom

Grab your backpack and head into the foothills of Ireland and you will see some of the loveliest lands that exist. Lush green lays on the land like a soft emerald cloth. There are mountains, rivers and beaches to explore. Hikes can be leisurely or they can become quite demanding, especially along the rugged cliffs of the Irish coastline.

Europe

Europe is a great place to hike, as well. Take a hiking tour to the many small villages and towns that are such an example of Europe’s best. France claims to have some of the best hiking spots in the world. Traveling across Europe has always been a favorite with the college crowd, but why let them have all the fun?

Exotic Hiking Tours

Looking for something a bit more exotic for your travels? Investigate a trekking tour to Nepal. Hike your way into mystic Khatmandu. The Dominican Republic, Mexico and India all feature exotic places to explore and travel on foot. And if you cannot get there by foot there are travel tours that will fly you in by helicopter. China is another exotic locale that has countryside worth experiencing by foot. A good walking stick, stout shoes and a reliable camera are all recommended items for the hiker and trekker
