Three of the Best Adventure Travel Destinations For Your Next Vacation

Is it a daunting task to decide where to go for your next vacation? Are you bored with the same old destinations you usually visit when you have time off from work? Some people can only handle so much shopping, gambling and sunning on the beach, right? Have you ever considered a vacation that is bases on adventure travels? These kinds of trips originated for people like you to get into nature, test your boundaries and get you in shape. Many individuals let their savings pile up so they can travel on more far-reaching adventure vacations. Luckily there are some that do not require a lifetime of saving. Here are some good suggestions for your next trip.

If you get a thrill from being out in nature and using your survival skills to live off the land, why not participate in an Australian Walkabout? These have gotten increasingly popular since one of the main characters on the television show Lost tried to go on one. The idea behind an Australian Walkabout is that you and your fellow adventurers head out into the Australian Outback with a guide. While you are on your walkabout, you live entirely off the land. You hunt for your own food, build your own shelter from what is available and take on any "elements" that might come your way (weather, animals, etc). It would be like extreme camping and can bring great satisfaction.

If you enjoy extreme adventure travel, why not think about taking a hot air balloon to parts unknown? How about partaking in a white water rafting adventure? Have you considered Bungee jumping? Some people are titillated by skydiving. Of course, there are various locations around the world you can do this. When extreme adventure vacationing becomes an option, skydiving over the Grand Canyon becomes a possibility. Climb in a hot air balloon and take an excursion over the Australian outback. When you make the choice to go to the extremes, the entire world is your playing field. Many extreme vacationers are attracted to India, for paragliding. Why not try that on for size?
Go for a Llama Trek! Everybody has gone horseback riding. If you want some funky adventure travels but don't have the money to travel outside of the US, check out the Hurricane Creek Llama Treks in Oregon. When you take one of these treks you will camp out--you're responsible for bringing your own gear (as well as setting it up and taking it down) as well as for packing and unpacking your llama bags. These types of adventure travels are great because they let you choose--you can either ride your llama or walk the trails yourself and lead the llama with you. When else in life are you going to have the chance to go for a llama ride? How about a beach? Maybe the tropical weather will do you great! Boracay is a must if you want to have a wonderful time and spend time with the family.There are so many different ways to define "adventure travels." For some it involves extreme activities like climbing the tallest mountains in the world or experiencing extreme climates. For some, it involves challenging situations they are not used to in their normal, everyday life - such as cattle driving and hiking in different lands, etc. Still for other people, adventure travels include learning new stuff, while still having a peaceful journey. In short: no matter what your interests, you can find an adventure vacation suited to you!
