Detour for an Adventure to These Mini Vacation Destinations

Adventure Travel

Doesn’t the idea of taking five short trips a year sound more appealing than one long vacation that has you cribbing at the end of it about going back to a 9 – 5 routine? Mini vacations are the best antidotes for the stress that most jobs and life in general comes with. It is not easy to identify destinations for mini vacations as time is a huge constraint in a small trip. We can help you with tips that you need to keep in mind while choosing these destinations.

We also help you with a variety of activities that can define which places qualify as the best mini vacation spots. Holidays and vacations are periods dedicated to the Gods of relaxation and rest. While taking trips to destinations that have been endorsed by the best travel magazines in the world is a tempting choice, it comes with the headache of planning till the last detail. Also, these places that are suggested by experts tend to be on most people’s list of places to visit, making them crowded with tourists from every part of the world.

A population from out of town not only limits your hotel options but also tends to spoil your trip to attractions around town. A 3 – 5 day getaway does not need planning, saves travel and stay costs, and you have the added advantage of not having to deal with the ordeal that is packing. Also, it allows you to unwind and refreshes you without setting off the laziness button.

Most towns and cities have nearby camping sites that charge a minimal rent for tenting facilities. A mountainous area that has clearly defined hiking trails or a natural preserve maybe one of the best destinations for a mini vacation. If physical exertion while on vacation is not exactly to your liking, then another option could be a lake getaway. If you have a friend who has a lakeside cabin, then you could probably borrow the keys for a couple of days but that is just for the lucky few.

One of the best options would be to book yourself into a spa that is close to your city of residence. Spend your mini vacation at a spa that offers several rejuvenating options and allows you to spend quality time with your partner. Not only will this vacation earn you major brownie points but it will also be the perfect way to rejuvenate yourself when you have only three to four days at hand. Pamper yourself crazy and allow your body to detoxify so that you are completely energized.

If you are one those lucky people who live close to the beach, then what could be a better mini vacation then a weekend trip to the seaside. If you are looking forward to a weekend of doing nothing, then you could always lounge around the beach, sip your favorite cocktail, sun yourself and do absolutely nothing. If you are more of a thrill seeker, then choose to excite yourself with the plethora of water sports that most beach resorts and sea side resorts have on offer.
