Summer Vacation Trips 2010

We all grew up looking forward to summer vacation, that reprieve from the tyranny of a school schedule where we could try something new, visit a new place, or just relax. Now that we're adults, taking some time away from the schedule of daily life is still a good idea. If you haven't decided on your ideal summer vacation, the list below will give you some intriguing ideas.

Magical Maine

Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor have long been a magnet for tourists, especially particularly in the delightful month of August. We will explore this area thoroughly, by bike, hike and kayak.

Exploring the Black Hills

The Black Hills of South Dakota are a magic place with a fascinating history and outstanding opportunities for outdoor exploration. During our week here we will climb South Dakota’s highest peak, bike the Mickelson Trail, hike in the Badlands, and explore some of the sites that are most important to the Lakota Sioux, including Wounded Knee, Bear Butte, and Wind Cave. We will be staying at an historic and rustic ranch (no horses though) sitting on 135 acres in the heart of the Black Hills  $1780 /   1  [2]  3  4  5

New in 2010! Every year the Adventures in Good Company founder is leading a new trip to some place she has been wanting to go but hasn’t had the time to check out. This year is a hiking trip in the Austrian Alps, combining huts and hotels, lots of hiking and eating, and the chance to sing songs from the Sound of Music in their original setting. This trip is full.

Colorado Rockies Ramble

Top of Page

Rocky Mountain National Park is known for lush meadows, high mountain lakes, craggy peaks, diverse ecosystems and abundant wildlife. We will try to see as much as possible as we journey into the park each day for a different hike. During our five days we will immerse ourselves in the history, geology, flora, and fauna of the Park. And at night we will retire to our huge cabin at the YMCA of the Rockies, situated right outside the Park boundaries in a beautiful setting.
