Is there anything better than immersing yourself in mother nature by camping? Don’t get me wrong—I love a good day hike as much as the next outdoorsperson, but there is something transformational about living in the great outdoors…even if only for a single night. 

It’s important to remember to be a good steward of the earth when you’re out in it, and it doesn’t matter if you’re at a relatively populated campground or alone on the trail. One of the best ways to honor the outdoor experience is to take care of the animals who call the wilderness home.

I know we aren’t alone when we say 2021 can’t get here fast enough. It’s as though the whole world is holding its breath...counting down the seconds until 2020 is in the rearview mirror and the future suddenly becomes the present.

We wanted to give you something to look forward to in the new year and decided to compile a list of dreamy hiking locales full of breathtaking views and soul-inspiring vistas. Let’s take a look and get inspired.
