Adventure travel is more popular than ever.
Trip possibilities include hiking, biking, canoeing, whitewater rafting, nature explorations, caving, fishing, rock climbing, kayaking, and trekking. Though you can choose to take these vacations on your own, I recommend joining an organized trip. These trips range from those on which you stay at country inns, lodges, and cabins, to more rugged excursions. If you're uncertain about whether you want an entire vacation devoted to adventure, head for a place where you can try out an activity for a day. It makes sense to test the waters before plunking down hard-earned dollars on a vacation you may not be so sure you're up for.
