I hear a lot of great thinks about the outdoors in Utah. It’s moving up my list of places to hike or visit. Thanks for the insight.

Hiking and cycling are two of my favorite ways to recharge, and indeed, there are great options just about everywhere -even in one’s “backyard”. You have to be an “in-town tourist” to appreciate what’s easily within grasp sometimes.

That said; I took my kids on some great hikes through southern Utah last July. Since we usually hike in wooded settings, slot canyons and deserts were a memorable departure from the usual.

@Carla

That sounds like a beautiful spot. It’s great to find places close to home to relax in.

@Kim Woodbridge

I’m a city dweller too and I need to get out every so often to be in nature. It’s refreshing.

I grew up in rural New Hampshire and spent my childhood outdoors. We even lived a mile from the closest neighbors and I used to just wander around in the woods. Now I live in a big city and rarely spend time out in nature – maybe I should make more of an effort to do so.

I live right on the edge of Tilden Park http://www.ebparks.org/parks/tilden – a large regional park that its so easy to get lost in.

Since I am just a couple blocks away, that is one of our main destinations when we just need to “get away”. There is also a majestic rose garden and a few other smaller parks in walking distance. This is a good alternative when we just dont want to go anywhere (in a car).

@Alik

Thanks. It’s worth a shot. Communing with nature and letting the tech noise go for awhile works for me.

Gennaro,
incredibly timely post. My emotional reservoir is drained and I am looking for a way to refill it. I thought on how to connect emotionally, and i think the best way for me is disconnect from the current “reality”. Hiking and turning off the phone should work the best.
Good stuff.

@Arn

Nepal is the classic trekking spot. I know a lot who swear by Bolivia too. Both high altitude spots.

@Giovanna Garcia

Thanks so much for the kind word.

Hi Gennaro

I enjoy coming to your site, because I always feel like I took a break from my day just by reading and looking at the photo. You have been like my desktop vacation. And you inspire me to want to see these places that I would never even have thought about.
Thanks,
Giovanna Garcia

My favorite places to hike are Bolivia, Colorado (U.S.), and Nepal. Atmosphere means a lot to me on the trip. Lots of nature and a little quiet go a long way.

Very true. Love the post. I’m ready for a hike. Maybe the weekend after the upcoming one

@Jay

Thanks for the kind words. New York definitely has a lot of natural beauty. Most just think of NYC, which is great in its one right, but NY is a big state with lots to offer.

These seem like great places. I used to live in CT (1 1/2 years ago) and I miss New York and its beauty. I need to look for hiking trails around here. I love to hike, but for some reason never think to do it. Thanks for the great photos and inspiring me to look to hike more!

@Tika

You have a real nice community there. I’m planning to return again.

The American Southwest is a beautiful place to visit especially for outdoor activites.
