3 Ideas For Making Your Next Vacation a Real Adventure!

By Maya Neitenstein


Do you picture yourself as an adventurer? Do you dream of being able to go off and tour a remote location, climb an extreme mountain or try something new? Do you get a thrill from pushing the limits and expanding your horizons? If so, why are you settling for a ho-hum vacation? Why are you setting yourself up for vacation boredom?

Why not get out and be active? No matter what kind of activity you enjoy or what boundary you want to push there are adventure travels out there just waiting for you to book them? These are some options for the person who is fed up with the same vacation over and over.

The West Coast Mountain Guides regular take thrill-seeking travelers out on climbing excursions. You can choose from locations all over the western Canadian provinces. Adventurers can pick from rock climbing, ice climbing or even snow mountaineering. If your adventuresome side kicks in, they can take you on an excursion that involves all three.

If you enjoy extreme adventure travel, why not think about taking a hot air balloon to parts unknown? What about going white water rafting? Have you kicked the idea around of Bungee jumping? Some people enjoy a rush of excitement from skydiving. Seemingly, there are spots to do this in many different towns.

Guests get atop a horse and help round up cattle and drive them from one bit of ranch acreage to another. At night there are campfire stories to be shared, some home cooking to be enjoyed and some excellent activities to participate in. During your down time you can do any number of things including hunting, fishing, hiking and horseback riding. This is a wonderful vacation for families because people of all ages and skill levels can partake on the adventure.

You Should Go on a Llama Trek! Anybody can do some horseback riding. If you want some wacky adventure travels without leaving the US, you can opt for the Hurricane Creek Llama Treks in Oregon. On these treks you bring your own camping equipment and are solely responsible for all setting up, taking down, packing and unpacking. These are great trips because you can either ride your own llama in the Oregon wilderness or you can walk the trails and lead your llama behind you. How many other times in your life will you be able to ride llamas?

Adventure travels don't always have to be about a death defying defeat. You can have a fantastic adventure vacation without bungee jumping, skydiving or being scared out of your wits that a shark is going to bit through a cage. Meanwhile, that is only half the excitement of any adventure-based vacation, for an adrenaline addict.

The trick to taking a truly adventurous vacation is to challenge yourself while still having fun. Do it!
