Adventure Travel
Adventure travel beckons the curious, the thrill-seeker, the boundary-pusher. And as more and more travelers approach their vacations with active and open minds, hotel and tour operators have either shifted or expanded what they offer to better cater to this breed of adventurer. From finding the best off-road vehicle routes in South Africa to seeing snow leopards in Ladakh, India, to simply finding a resort that has plenty to keep the kids busy, here is plenty of intel to interest both beginners and seasoned explorers who are planning their ideal travel pursuit.

Silverton, Colorado
This Colorado Mountain Town Has Year-round Outdoor Adventures Accessible Via Scenic Heritage Railroad
If you're an advanced hiker, biker, boater, skier, snowboarder, snowshoer, etc. you'll enjoy Silverton, but moderate or inexperienced athletes will have some fun here too.
Silverton, Colorado is one of those rare places where mountain views greet you in every direction, and where everyone seems to be off climbing, skiing, hiking, or river rafting. Though its history is rooted in mining — gold and silver were discovered in this area in the late 19th century — Silverton is a true mountain town today, and as such, it draws people who truly love the mountains.
Matera, Italy
This Gorgeous Italian City You Haven't Heard of Has Cave Hotels, Ancient History, and Stunning Views
A trip to Matera, Italy, will take you back in time.
Tucked inside the arch of Italy’s boot, Matera could have easily disappeared into the annals of history — the community was inhabited some 10,000 years before falling into disrepair, and was completely deserted in the 1970s. But, through the sheer force and determination of locals, plus several strategic investments, the long-standing town managed to not just survive, but thrive — in 2019, it was named a European Capital of Culture, and is considered one of the most beautiful places in all of Italy.
