This is the third in a series looking at the great outback tracks of South Australia and the first of a 2-part series on the Birdsville Track.

The outback means many things to many people, probably dependent on where you come from and previous experience. In South Australia, an outback trip is invariably a desert experience, travelling through areas having minimal rainfall. But when it does rain, watch out!

Torrential downpours often cause severe flooding and may close many of the normally dusty roads. These heavy rains most commonly occur in the summer as a result of monsoonal weather conditions experienced in the north-west of Western Australia or cyclonic conditions pushing down from northern Queensland.

The best time to travel in the area

This is not a good time to travel in the area, not just because of the risk of rain, but also due to the extreme temperatures, often in the high 40’s. Although these events can impact on travel in the area, the sight of a quick flowing Cooper Creek or Diamantina River is spectacular and provides some brilliant camping opportunities.

One of the best times to travel is in the winter following one of these rain events as the creeks often retain water well after the event, forming large waterholes and billabongs, flanked by magnificent trees – a campers dream.

The Birdsville Track is well travelled, being a supply route to the stations along the way and still fulfilling its original role as a major stock route, bringing animals from as far away as the Queensland Channel Country to markets in Adelaide.

The romance of the drover leisurely pushing a herd of cattle south is long since gone. Now a massive diesel powered monster will come rumbling down the track spewing masses of dust behind its multiple trailers. The road train rules!

Condition of the track

Although dirt all the way from Marree to Birdsville, it is normally well maintained and can even be traversed in a well-prepared conventional vehicle. However, like all outback tracks, conditions can change quickly, especially after rain, and a 4WD is preferable if you find yourself in a “sticky” situation. Advice about vehicle preparation and gear to carry will be found in part 2 of this blog.

Having reached Birdsville, had the mandatory drink at the Birdsville Pub and seen the sights, you do need an exit strategy. You could turn around and head back south and do it all again, and many people do. But there are a variety of other options if you have the luxury of time and these will also be covered in part 2.

The beginning

Like many things, necessity drives invention, and the Birdsville Track is no exception.

The large cattle stations stretching north of Marree and well into Queensland needed a way of getting stock to market. This was a time well before motor transport and the drover was king. The nearest railhead was initially at Port Augusta, and later Marree, a distance over 1000km shorter than moving stock to Brisbane.

But, no route existed through incredibly inhospitable terrain, requiring the crossing of three deserts – the Tirari Desert, east of Lake Eyre, Sturts Stony Desert that runs along the eastern edge of the Simpson Desert, and the Strezlecki Desert, sandwiched between the Simpson and Queensland. A route was surveyed in the early 1860’s and stock started moving soon after, sometimes in mobs of over 1000 animals.

However, one enormous obstacle stood in the way of this venture being a success – water. Apart from the relatively rare flooding events that swelled otherwise dry creeks, there was no permanent water along the whole length of the track. Many deaths occurred, both human and animal, due to the harsh conditions and extreme isolation.

Blinding sandstorms lasting up to 5 days were not uncommon, especially in the Natterannie Sandhills area. Stock wandered aimlessly and with visibility non-existent, many were never seen again. Drovers were not spared, with many perishing in the desert whilst looking for the wandering stock. Especially in the sand hill country, every direction looked the same.

More on the history of the area

Even relatively modern travellers have fallen foul of the conditions with the Page family of five perishing along the track when their vehicle broke down in 1963 and they attempted to walk for help.

Their graves stand forlornly near the track at Koonchera Dune (26 35 20S, 139 38 22E).

The South Australian Government, realising the economic importance of the track and wanting to encourage its use to bring stock into the southern markets, began a program of bore drilling, resulting in the Great Artesian Basin being tapped every 40-50km.

Many of these bores have now been capped, but some are controlled with valves and a certain amount of water flows freely producing mini-wetland ecosystems teeming with birdlife. Look out for these on your travels.

Once the track was established

Once the track was established it also became the route for cameleers carrying supplies for stations along the track. The cameleers were commonly known as Afghans, however many came from India and Pakistan. They soon set up a significant community in Marree and what is known as Ghan Town still exists today, populated by many of the descendants of these amazing pioneers.

A mail contract was let in 1884, with mail and other supplies carried along the track in horse and buggy. But without a doubt, the most famous of the mailmen was Tom Kruse, immortalised in the 1954 documentary, “Back of Beyond”.

There is no better documentation of what life was like at the time and it is well worth getting a copy before you embark on your trip. If nothing else, you will certainly appreciate all the mod-cons today’s travellers enjoy. One of Tom’s mail trucks sits opposite the hotel at Marree, unfortunately, not in good condition.

Getting There

The southern end of the track starts at Marree, some 700km north of Adelaide, requiring some time just to get there. For most, the outback starts north of Port Augusta, with the rugged and magnificent Flinders Ranges beckoning you to head north.

There are many things to captivate the traveller before arriving at Marree and these have been documented in the previous blog “Oodnadatta Track Part 1 – Port Augusta to Lyndhurst”.

If you have time at least stop and look at a few of these places. My top 5 are:

Kanyaka Homestead

Brachina Gorge

A meal at the Prairie Hotel, Parachilna

The Ochre Pits

Farina

Travelling the Birdsville Track

Today the track is wide and well maintained, but don’t be fooled. You will be travelling through the desert country with no natural water sources other than after rain. Much of the track has a gibber surface that can play havoc with tyres unless pressures are reduced.

The seemingly good condition of the track can build up a false sense of security leading to increased speeds. A pot-hole, wandering animal or corrugations have led some to make sudden direction changes, unfortunately to their peril. So keep the speed down and enjoy the experience.

Even though the track is only 520km long, I suggest taking at least two days to take in the sights and appreciate the country. There are no towns along the way and Birdsville itself is only a small town with limited supplies. No big glitzy supermarkets here.

Self-sufficiency is the key, especially with food and water, although water supplies can be topped up at Birdsville. Fuel is available about half-way along the track at Mungerannie, with a couple of outlets at Birdsville.

Things to See

The first distance shown is from Marree and the second from Birdsville.

0km/521km – Marree

The area around Marree, Lake Eyre and north is the traditional home of the Dieri people. Many are prominent residents of Marree and the Dieri Aboriginal Corporation operates a number of businesses in the town. The Marree Aboriginal School caters for the children of the area with modern facilities.

When first established, the town was known as Hergott Springs, but this soon changed to Marree and became an extremely important rail town when the narrow gauge Ghan train arrived in 1884. For a number of years, this was the railhead, with many hundreds of camels loaded up with supplies from the trains to be taken to the homesteads, some many kilometres away.

As stock started to come down the Birdsville Track, they were loaded onto trains for the trip to the markets in Adelaide. This was a bustling, busy centre until a new standard gauge railway bypassed the area in 1980.

Since that time, Marree has depended largely on tourism and is quite busy, especially in the cooler months as travellers pass through on their trips up the Birdsville Track, Oodnadatta Track or onto Lake Eyre.

Whilst at Marree have a look at the following:

the old mosque that sits alongside the road opposite the road house

a couple of the old Ghan diesel locomotives that sit next to the old railway platform

the Lake Eyre Sailing Club – just down the road from the roadhouse

Ghan Town, where many of the descendants of the early pioneers live. This is in the area behind the roadhouse

Tom Kruse’s old mail truck that sits opposite the pub.

The roadhouse boasts its own bakery and can provide basic supplies. Fuel is also available.

If you have time, take the 54km track, just outside of Marree, to Muloorina, a fabulous campsite on the edge of wetlands. There is then a 45km Public Access Route to the edge of Lake Eyre. Muloorina is where Donald Campbell stayed whilst attempting his land speed records on Lake Eyre. The track to the lake is quite sandy, so a 4WD is recommended.

31km/490km – Lake Harry

The site of a short-lived attempt to grow dates in the early years, now there is just the remains of a building and an old bore head. The bore provided plentiful water and together with the warm climate, it was believed the conditions were conducive to a good crop.

The trees grew exceptionally well but there was one problem, the natural pollinators for date palms did not exist in this area. To overcome the problem, canals were dug along the sides of each row of palms and men in boats pollinated the flowers by hand.

Although some dates did grow, this highly intensive process was not economic and the project was soon abandoned.

43km/478km – Dog Fence

Reputed to be the longest fence in the world at over 5500km, it begins at the Great Australian Bight and weaves right up into Queensland. It was designed to protect sheep from attack by dingoes with the area south of the fence deemed suitable for sheep grazing and the area north being more suitable for cattle.

The fence is still maintained to this day by contractors, each of whom has a section to look after. It is illegal to travel along the maintenance track adjacent to the fence and potentially dangerous with traps and baits being laid by the contractors.

54km/467km – Clayton Wetlands

Established by the nearby Clayton Station, this area results from a controlled release of bore water. The area has toilets, warm showers and even a “spa”, created by a large section of the water tank that can be filled with warm water from the bore. What a luxury in the bush.

There are plenty of campsites along the wetland and bird watchers won’t be disappointed.

124km/397km – Etadunna Station

Signified by the large steel cross on the side of the track, Etadunna (pronounced “Eta-dinna”) is a large cattle station taking in a lot of land along the Cooper Creek. The cross is a reminder of the German missionaries who set up the Bethesda missionary station nearby at Lake Killalpaninna to try and convert the local Dieri aborigines to the Lutheran religion. Access to the remains of this settlement can be gained from the station homestead where a key providing access to the track can be hired.

Etadunna is also the access point to the Cooper Creek flood track. At times when the Cooper is in flood, the main Birdsville Track becomes impassable where the Cooper crosses, as water spreads out over the low-lying country either side of the main creek.

The track can be impassable for many months so an alternative track through Etadunna Station provides access to a deep but narrow section of Cooper Creek where a “ferry” is operated by the South Australian Government.

This is a small raft that can only take one or two vehicles at a time and is powered by a couple of small outboard motors. This is a rare but amazing experience that last occurred in 2010.

It is illegal to travel on this track other than when it is officially opened for use of the ferry. Large fines apply for travel on a closed road.

146km/375km – Cooper Creek crossing

Other than on rare occasions, you won’t see any water here, just a broad flood plain and a dip as the track crosses the main channel. Just to the south of the crossing and on the western side of the track sits the “Tom Brennan”, a small boat used to carry people, supplies and stock across the creek when flooded.

Just another stark reminder of the difficulties experienced by early settlers and drovers living in this harsh environment.

150km/271km – Natterannie Sandhills

An area on the track that caused great difficulties for travellers, drovers and the early mail contractors. Consistently moving fine white sand dunes, regularly whipped up into a dense, opaque cloud caused disorientation, disguised the track and led to the deaths of people and stock.

The perils of this area are well documented in the film “Back of Beyond” mentioned previously. No worries today as the track is wide, well formed and constantly maintained.

164km/357km – Mulka ruins

George and Mabel Aiston established a store, roughly half way along the Birdsville Track in the early 1900’s. Imagine the lonely existence at this time with very few people travelling the track. George, known as “Poddy”, died in 1943 and Mabel continued to run the business until 1951, then well into her 70’s.

The crumbling ruins of the store remain just off the western side of the track, not long before the track into Mulka Homestead.

206km/315km – Mungerannie

The only settlement along the track, you will be greeted by a top outback pub, flanked by permanent wetlands fed by a controlled bore. Pub meals, snacks and a cold drink are always on offer, and camping along the wetlands makes a good break in your trip. Tyre repairs and basic mechanical assistance is also available.

242km/279km – Mirra Mitta Bore

One of the bores drilled to provide water for drovers, this is now controlled but does constantly flow into a small pond and into long channels to cool the water for stock.

288km/233km – Mt. Gason Bore

Another controlled but usually flowing bore. Be very careful near the bore head as the water flowing out can be extremely hot.

315km/206km – Warburton Crossing (27 06 29S, 138 49 21E)

This track leads to the Warburton Creek and on to the eastern edge of the Simpson Desert. It is often closed as even a small amount of rain or any significant flow of water in the Warburton makes the crossing impassable.

340km/181km – Inside Track (26 59 53S, 139 01 30E)

The original route of the Birdsville Track followed the Warburton Creek and crossed it near Clifton Hills Station. However, the Warburton’s wide flood plain resulted in the area becoming impassable, even after a little rain. This happened so often that a new route to the east was surveyed and a new road built, now known as the Outside Track.

The inside track can still be taken but, due to the factors mentioned above, is quite often closed. If open it provides an alternative route home for travellers returning along the Birdsville Track.

399km/122km – Walkers Crossing (26 52 15S, 139 32 08E)

Another track that is subject to regular closure due to rain, it provides a route between Birdsville and Innamincka. The name comes from the point where the track crosses the Cooper. The channel here is deep and makes the crossing impassable if there is any significant water in the creek. This track also passes through major oil and gas fields and tracks go in all directions.

Travelling through the area can be a navigational nightmare as few of these tracks are on any map. If taking this option have the best maps you can, a reliable and accurate GPS and good navigational skills.

You are not looked on kindly if you drive into the middle of a mining camp or drilling operation.

512km/0km – Birdsville

One of the places many people want to tick off their “bucket list”, Birdsville is a true outback icon and a delightful place to spend a couple of days. Established in 1881, it sits beside a large billabong on the Diamantina River. Nestled near the borders of Queensland, South Australia and the Northern Territory, it was established as a point to collect tolls for the many cattle being moved out of Queensland to southern markets.

Apart from the obligatory drink at the Birdsville Pub, accompanied by the regular comings and goings of aircraft on the airfield just across the road, there are a number of things you should see before you leave:

Visitor Information Centre

In the Community Centre and Library, get all the latest information, maps and “goss” from the locals to ensure you don’t miss out on anything.

Birdsville Bakery

Try their famous camel pies plus many other delights. They also do a great breakfast.

Big Red

Just 35km out of town is the famous and largest sand dune on the Simpson Desert. If you have a 4WD, give it a go. The view from the top is worth the effort, be it by vehicle or foot.

Dingo Caves and Waddi Trees

This area to the north of town provides a magnificent lookout over the area and is the site of a group of Waddi trees, having some of the hardest wood of any trees in the world. See the Visitor Centre for exact details.

Geothermal power station and bore

Just on the edge of town is a bore that has been supplying the town’s water for many years. Gushing from the earth at very high temperatures, it is run through cooling towers so that it can be piped around the town. The hot water is also used to run a power station that supplies some of the town’s electricity.

There is even a free “car-wash” that visitors are urged to use to remove dust, and sometimes mud, from vehicles rather than depositing this on the roads.

Mechanical and tyre repairs are available and spare parts can be flown in if required – at a cost!

Having whet your appetite to take on this trek, check out part 2 for information on accommodation, preparation, facilities and general tips to make your trip safe and enjoyable.

Wow!! Where do I start I guess the answer to that is at the beginning and that started Friday when Ray from Fiordland Tours called into the NZMCA camp in Te Anau and talked to us about his tour although at that stage we had thought about driving in. On Sunday after speaking to a couple of people about driving there all had said parking is terrible take a bus tour. With this in mind we booked with Ray’s company to be collected from the camp Monday morning.

Just before 8am Jono arrived at the gates in one of the company Toyota Coaster buses, I used to own one of these in my rental business but it wasn’t as nice as this one which had plush seats as well as much more leg room. The tour consisted of only 15 people a number both Sarah and I where really happy with as we hate crowds. We also had Wally and Raewyn joining us from the camp who ended up sitting just in front of us as we sat in the back row. With only one other couple left to pick up we ended up with the whole back seat to ourselves, very spacious!

First stop was a view of Lake Te Anau’s South Fiord. At this point it became obvious that we had chosen a good company to run with as not only was Jono a fountain of knowledge pointing out various facts but also by choosing one of the smaller companies we where making stops that the larger ones wouldn’t as a couple of large tour buses sailed past.

Second stop: Te Anau Downs the starting point of the Milford Track as well as the bay where the original farm sent the wool into market from the wharf. The people that owned the original farm also constructed by hand the first part of the road from Te Anau to their property, getting the Milford road underway.

Next it was onto the Mirror Lakes with this specially crafted sign that reads correctly only in the image created by the lake. A short 5 minute walk along the boardwalk provided other photo chances as well as masses of tourists who had also chosen this moment to stop. The amount of traffic on the road together with over 100 tour buses a day creates an influx of tourists that cannot exist anywhere else in New Zealand in quite the same numbers.

The Mirror Lakes was despite the crowds a very pretty place.

Next was a quick comfort stop at Knobs Flat with the sky still looking a bit ominous we were a little concerned that once we arrived at the Sound it would all be covered in cloud but Jono assured us that cloudy this side of the Main Divide makes it clearer on the other side.

We arrived at the Homer Tunnel which these days have a set of traffic lights to regulate the flow down to one way, judging from when we were inside I would say this is a great idea. According to our tour guide Jono the first 100 metres on this side was dug by 5 men using pickaxes, shovel and wheel barrows. Apparently they also slept in tents year round.  It was only later that they started using TNT with the whole tunnel taking almost 20 years to complete although construction was interrupted during WW2. From here it was a clear run onward to Milford.

As we arrived into Milford Sarah and I looked at the carpark situation to see if we could have driven the camper it appeared that every space was already taken, There was a campervan as well as a number of cars circling looking and it was only 10.25am. It made us glad we had taken the tour imagine arriving and not being able to find a park with your boat about to leave!

With the clouds lifting and cameras at the ready it was onto the boat to begin our Milford Sound cruise. There are a number of boats in the marina most seem to be run by the companies that are also busing in the tourists. All of these were larger than the boat we jumped on and all appeared a lot fuller.

First port of call was the Fairy Falls with the boat coming right into the cliff face so that those in the front of the boat actually got soaked by the falls. Because the fiord was carved out by glaciers it is as deep as it is tall. Since the cliff face rises 200 metres it also falls directly into the water by the same amount so their was no chance of running aground.

The sun had really started to break through as it became a really nice day. With mountains and waterfalls almost every way you turned it was hard to stop clicking the camera.

No trip on the water in this part of New Zealand would be complete without spotting some Fur Seals who according to the boat captain are the staple diet of Great White Sharks who congregate in greater numbers in Fiordland than anywhere else in the world. The cruise took us out into the Tasman Sea which was almost like a millpond, most unusual.

Like all traffic in New Zealand the boats keep left so coming back towards the docks we approached the Stirling Falls these are glacier fed so the water falls even in times of drought. The captain telling us that the water is up to one million years old.

The Captain also announced that if you were outside and had anything loose to hold onto it as well as be prepared to get wet. Sarah put on her rain coat just in time as the swirl of wind and water caused by the fall inside the area protected by the cliffs was like a category 5 cyclone. Sarah went from bone dry to drenched in seconds, if I hadn’t been holding our bag it might have been blown overboard. In all of this I missed the chance to take any decent photos of the drowned rat (Sarah) but you can see in the photo above she still has the wet hair after taking off the raincoat.

Coming back into the dock after one hour forty minutes aboard we both agreed that it was well worth it and with the clouds clearing allowing us a glimpse of Mitre Peak it finished of the cruise nicely.

We stopped to have lunch on the grass outside the Mitre Peak Hotel I cannot think of anywhere that I have eaten that had such great views. With the clouds now almost completely gone I was regretting putting on the jeans and a long sleeved top this morning to try to stop being bitten by the dreaded sandflies that infest this area. We were told the only reason they built the airport here was to enable the sandflies to take off and land again they are so large. Actually we had been really lucky with both of us hardly getting bitten at all.

With lunch out of the way it was time to start the slow journey back to Te Anau stopping at a number of places to view the sights on the way. First was the Tutoko Bridge an old suspension bridge that has been restored to allow foot traffic access. The bridge offers amazing views of Mt Tutoko the highest in the area although it was a little obscured by cloud on our visit. Below the bridge the fast flowing river cascades down to the sound, the clarity of the water has to be seen to be believed it just looks so pure.

Next stop was The Chasm, to get there is a 10 minute walk through some spectacular Beech forest that offers a different shade of green at almost every corner and then when the sunlight shines through it all changes again.

The Chasm is a 22 metre deep ravine that funnels the water through Diorite Rock causing the wierd shapes you can see in the photo above. The noise from the falls suggests a huge volume of water rushing through a very small area so you would not want to fall in.

The road winding up to the Homer Tunnel from the Milford side really winds up and up with the queue for the traffic lights you would want to make sure you had a good handbrake whilst waiting for the lights to turn green.

We stopped on the Te Anau side of the Homer Tunnel for a photo opportunity. It is an amazing piece of engineering at 1.4kms long with some of it dug by hand just unbelievable.

Falls Creek is a new bridge that spans the Homer River presenting some marvelous photo points. The water is so clear according to our guide Jono because the Milford area receives up to 10 Metres of rain a year there is no soil to be washed away only sediment from the rocks.

Across the swing bridge at the start of the track towards Lake Marian and you come across the Cascade Falls where again thousands of litres per second are pouring past you in a swirl of water. All of these tracks are clearly defined with wooden footpaths here straddling the side of the cliff to make viewing better.

Coming back down the path Jono had stopped to show everyone a small cave that contained some glow worms as Sarah tried to get around one of our tour to get a better look she stepped off the path and next second with a small scream to go with it she’s dropped off the path and is ten feet down the bank. Thankfully Sarah was OK just a bit of mud on her jeans and a fright more than anything.

The penultimate stop of the day was at Gunn’s camp in the Hollyford Valley. The history behind this camp is really interesting with the original Gunn taking ownership of the land back in the 20’s when it was expected that the road would go through from Haast to Te Anau however this never happened, hence the sign above. The camp was then taken over by the Ministry of Works when they built the Milford Road. When the MOW finished the road Gunn’s son took over the lease on the land but when he died the land went unwanted and fell into disrepair.

The land was taken over by DOC who put in managers to run the camp and it’s now used by school groups and tramping parties as well as our tour company who served afternoon tea to all of us in the kitchen.

The final stop was the beautiful Gunn Lake a quick pull off stop from the road with crystal clear water lapping a nice stony beach a very pleasant final destination.

The tour was the perfect length not to short so that you felt rushed not long enough that you felt bored. As we drove back towards Te Anau I felt almost like going to sleep it had been such a full on day.

We got back to the campsite just before 6pm after Jono had dropped off the other passengers as well as giving us the rundown on all the local restaurants in town as we drove through. I guess that’s the advantage of local knowledge.

Sarah and I are not coach or guided tour people and would never have taken this trip had everyone we talked to told us to do so. I have to say it was one of the best days of our lives a terrific tour made even better by Jono the tour driver.

We recommend Fiordland Tours and the boat trip 110% great companies, great service, great people. Check out http://www.fiordlandtours.co.nz or call the office on 0800247249

    The Milford Sound Wow!! Where do I start I guess the answer to that is at the beginning and that started Friday when Ray from Fiordland Tours called into the NZMCA camp in Te Anau and talked to us about his tour although at that stage we had thought about driving in.

The Purpose Driven, Seeker-Sensitive Gospel

New Post has been published on http://bedisciple.com/begospel-clear/false-gospels/the-purpose-driven-seeker-sensitive-gospel/

The Purpose Driven, Seeker-Sensitive Gospel

The purpose drive, seeker-sensitive gospel, also known as the “attractional” church model has become practically the norm in Christianity.  Generally, most Christians have accepted this as the only way to “do church.”

So what is it?  This church model starts with the idea that traditional church practices such as the faithful preaching of the Bible, the sacraments, music, etc… are unattractive and can’t bring in new people, so the church must implement exciting new ideas, music, and fun to get new people through the doors.  Once people show up for the attractions and entertainment, they’ll eventually hear the gospel and “accept Jesus into their hearts” (or something to that effect).

Robert Schuller (1926-2015) is probably the man most responsible for establishing the Attractional, Seeker-Friendly, Purpose-Driven church model.  Schuller removed many of the “negative” aspects of Christianity like Christ dying on the cross to atone for our sin, hell, God’s anger and God’s wrath; and replaced it with the positive thinking philosophy he borrowed directly from his mentor, Norman Vincent Peale (1898-1993).

In a 2002 Christianity Today article, Kay Warren, Rick’s wife is quoted saying, “He (speaking of Schuller) had a profound influence on Rick.”

During his last year in seminary, he and Kay drove west to visit Robert Schuller’s Institute for Church Growth. “We had a very stony ride out to the conference,” she says, because such nontraditional ministry scared her to death. Schuller, though, won them over. “He had a profound influence on Rick,” Kay says. “We were captivated by his positive appeal to nonbelievers. I never looked back.” Imitating Schuller, Warren walked the (then unincorporated but fast-growing) town of Lake Forest, asking what kept people from going to church. He recruited a Bible study group that met at the Warrens’ condominium; its members helped stamp and address letters to 15,000 households. “At last!” the letter began. “A new church for those who’ve given up on traditional church services!” More than 200 people showed up for an Easter service at Laguna Hills High School. Watching them stream in, Warren marveled, “This is really going to work!”—Christianity Today http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2002/012/1.42.html

On a fundamental level, Robert Schuller believed that modern people didn’t care about salvation from sin anymore, because of this he thought that the church should reach them by appealing to the things that do matter to them; things like purpose, self-esteem, and earthly success and happiness.

“The church must develop a theology for mission. I don’t think it’s done that. I accept John 3:16 as a good one if people have a fear of hell. Maybe they have, but I find a lot of secular people haven’t. At what point can I find a button to push so that I can reach them? I think their desire for self-esteem is that button.”— Robert Schuller interviewed in Christianity Today, Aug. 10,1984

“I don’t think anything has been done in the name of Christ and under the banner of Christianity that has proven more destructive to human personality and hence counterproductive to the evangelistic enterprise than the unchristian, uncouth strategy of attempting to make people aware of their lost and sinful condition.”— Robert Schuller “Dr. Schuller Comments,” (letter to the editor), Christianity Today, October 5, 1984, pp. 12-13

After Schuller established the Crystal Cathedral and his T.V. Show “The Hour of Power” he acquired a couple of young pastors whom he trained.  Bill Hybels and Rick Warren.  Both of these men learned about growing a church directly from Schuller when they were starting their new churches, Willow Creek Church (Hybels) and Saddleback Church (Warren).

One of the biggest problems with the purpose-driven message is that it’s a watered-down, unclear and neutered message. This “Christianity” is man centered and focused on meeting the “felt needs” of people, but the true Gospel message is about how Christ gave His life as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. He didn’t die on the cross to give us purpose or make us successful.

In 40 Days of Purpose, Rick Warren’s video series, Rick offers this prayer for unbelievers to repeat.

“Dear God I want to know your purpose for my life.  I don’t want to waste the rest of my life on wrong things.  Today I take the first step in preparing for eternity by getting to know you.  Jesus Christ, I don’t understand it all but as much as I know how I want to open up my life to you.  I ask you to come into my life and make yourself real to me and use this series in my life to help me know what you made me for.  Thank you.  Amen.”

Warren goes on to say…

“Now if you just prayed that prayer for the very first time, I wanna congratulate you.  You’ve just become a part of the family of God!”

The problem with this “prayer” is that it doesn’t address the person’s sinful condition, repentance from their sin, faith in Jesus Christ alone to atone for that sin, and then leads them to believe that they are now “a part of the family of God!”  This is confusing and destructive.

In Warren’s book The Purpose-Driven Life he offers this “gospel presentation” on pages 58-59.

“First, believe.  Believe God loves you and made you for his purposes.  Believe you’re not an accident.  Believe you were made to last forever.  Believe God has chosen you to have a relationship with Jesus, who died on the cross for you.  Believe that no matter what you’ve done, God wants to forgive you.  Second, receive.  Receive Jesus into your life as your Lord and Savior.  Receive his forgiveness for your sins.  Receive His Spirit, who will give you the power to fulfill your life purpose.  The Bible says, “Whoever accepts and trusts the Son gets in on everything, life complete and forever!” (John 3:36a)  Wherever you are reading this, I invite you to bow your head and quietly whisper the prayer that will change your eternity: “Jesus, I believe in you and I receive you.”  Go ahead. If you sincerely meant that prayer, congratulations!  Welcome to the family of God!  You are now ready to discover and start living God’s purpose for your life.”

Now while this presentation does include some very key aspects of the Gospel such as belief, eternal life, a relationship with Jesus, forgiveness, sin, and the Lordship of Jesus, it is missing essential elements.  For example, repentance and self-denial (Luke 9:23-24).  Also missing is the eternal consequences of sin, and why Jesus died on the cross.  I think we see the main theme of his book on display when Warren says “Receive His Spirit, who will give you the power to fulfill your life purpose.”  Not only does this statement ignore the purposes of the Holy Spirit to convict of sin, righteousness, judgment, and to point the believer to Christ (John 16:7-14), but it’s focused on man and his purpose rather than God and His purposes.

Another massive problem with the attractional, seeker-sensitive, purpose-driven church is the constant emphasis on leadership. This shouldn’t come as a surprise, given the majority of the philosophy behind this church model is not based on the Bible-it’s based on business principles. The non-Christian business guru  Peter Drucker (1909-2005) has probably had more influence on this idea of the church than any single pastor. Read: Peter Drucker’s Mega-Church Legacy. Both Hybels and Warren refer to Drucker as their primary mentor. Here’s a quote from Bill Hybels book “Courageous Leadership” that clearly portrays his near-idolatry of leadership:

“I believe that the great tragedy of the church in our time has been its failure to recognize the importance of the spiritual gift of leadership. It appears to me that only a fraction of pastors worldwide are exercising the spiritual gift of leadership, organizing the church around it, and deploying church members through it. The results, in terms of church growth and worldwide spiritual impact, are staggering.”— Bill Hybels

Did you catch that? “It appears to me that only a fraction of pastors worldwide are exercising the spiritual gift of leadership, organizing the church around it, and deploying church members through it.”  According to Hybels, the main focus for pastors is leadership.  The church should be organized around leadership, not Christ, and the church members should be going through it (whatever that means) not repenting, being edified, evangelizing, and practicing all of the one-another’s commanded in scripture.  It seems as though LEADERSHIP is Mr. Hybels god, not Jesus Christ.

The following video from Elliot Nesch, is probably the most careful and comprehensive examination of the mega-church model available on the internet. This is three hours of very important material; every Christian should watch this (and then watch it again!):

The Mighty American Road Trip: Spot gators and feast on BBQ in the red-hot South

Erin Alexander

Sports fans know the American South first and foremost as SEC country, home to proud football colleges like the University of Tennessee, the University of Alabama, and Louisiana State University. But the Southern states have always had a hell of a lot more to offer than football—classic Southern dishes like biscuits, shrimp and grits, and fried chicken, for starters. (Yeah: If you've been saving up those "cheat meal" days, you'll love this trip.)

[RELATED1]

And don't get too worked up about all those heavenly calories you'll be chowing down throughout your journey, because with a little help from Lonely Planet editor Trisha Ping, we mapped out plenty of awesome stuff you can do to help you burn off the energy. Fitness junkies will enjoy kayaking along Shem Creek in Charleston or trekking through sunken, old trails used by early American settlers, while thrill-seekers can jump at the chance to take a flight lesson over the coast of Savannah, GA, or go spelunking just oustide of Nashville, TN.

Here's the Men's Fitness guide to road-tripping through the American South.

The Mighty American Road Trip: Spot gators and feast on BBQ in the red-hot South

1. Take a private flight over the Georgia coast (Savannah, GA)

Get exhilarating, one-of-a-kind views of Savannah, GA, from the sky during a flight lesson with Amphibian Air, which offers daytime and sunset flights with an FAA-certified flight instructor in an open-cockpit aircraft that feels a bit like riding a "motorcycle in the sky."

Film fanatics and history buffs alike ought to make note of our next pit stop in downtown Savannah—Chippewa Square. Built in 1815, Chippewa Square is home to the bus stop with the iconic bench where Tom Hanks sits in Forrest Gump. 

After a day of flying and location scouting, you're bound to have worked up a hearty appetite. Pay a visit to Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room, for some "traditional family style Southern cooking," recommends Jamie Jensen, certified road trip expert and author of Road Trip USA.

2. Kayak Shem Creek before chowing down on some local biscuits (Charleston, SC)

Perfectly manicured gardens, brightly colored (and beautiful) historic buildings, genteel locals, delicious Southern cooking: That's Charleston.

Since our Southern road trip admittedly offers ample opportunities to sample the region's delicious (albeit calorie-rich) cuisine, we'll begin our stop in Charleston with something that'll burn a few calories. Go kayaking, canoeing, or even paddleboarding, around Shem Creek; you'll get to explore the area's local salt marshes, and might even catch a glimpse of a dolphin. And if you happen to stop through town in April, sign up for the Cooper River Bridge Run, an annual 10-km race.

After taking a stroll through downtown Charleston, make up that calorie deficit with a stop to Callie's Charleston Biscuits—they're flaky, tasty, and dangerously addictive. For dinner, swing by the Macintosh, where Executive Chef Jeremiah Bacon serves up a modern fare using fresh, local ingredients.

3. Take a turn (or five) down Sliding Rock in Pisgah National Forest (Asheville, NC)

The water is damn near freezing (which can be a godsend during the humid summer months), but you won't regret accelerating down the polished, stony incline of Sliding Rock at Pisgah National Forest. An easy 40-minute drive from downtown Asheville, NC, Pisgah is an outdoorsman's paradise, with an endless supply of scenic trails, cascading waterfalls, fishing, and camping.

On your way out, stop by Dolly's Dairy Bar and Gift Shop, a local favorite located just a few minutes outside the forest's main entrance. We can tell you from experience: It's some of the best ice cream you'll ever indulge in—and totally worthy of a cheat meal.

Back in Asheville, stop by Tupelo Honey Cafe, another one of our editor-approved spots for tasty Southern fare made from scratch. And if you're looking to plan a more leisurely day (how Southern of you), make a trip to the Biltmore Estate, where you can roam the grounds of America's largest home and even visit the estate's winery, which offers daily tours and tastings.

4. Go spelunking in Cumberland Caverns (Nashville, TN)

If you've never been spelunking (and you're not at all claustrophobic), you've got to make a day trip to Cumberland Caverns, a little over an hour outside of downtown Nashville. More than 300 feet below ground, Cumberland Caverns allows you to check out over 32 miles of incredible rock formations, untouched subterannean waterfalls, and picturesque caves.

Back in Nashville, you definitely won't want to miss out on the thriving music and bar scene. Ping recommends making a visit to Bobby's Idle Hour, a "no-frills, locals-only dive" that has live music daily without the downtown crowds. For a great locally crafted beer, Ping also suggests making a visit to Bearded Iris Brewing, which offers up brews that range from sours to lagers and Belgian ales, and features a "small taproom with an elegant speakeasy vibe."

On your way out, stop for a classic Southern breakfast at The Loveless Cafe, which has been serving up grub to hungry road-trippers for more than 50 years.

5. Visit the birthplace of America's 'King' (Tupelo, MS)

A trip through the South would be remiss without a visit to the house where the American legend and "King" of rock 'n' roll was born—the Elvis Presley Birthplace and Museum, located just a few minutes outside downtown Tupelo, MS. Get a firsthand look at the spot where it all began; tours of the tiny two-room structure, which Elvis' father built in 1934 for just $180, also feature authentic memorabilia and period furniture.

Just a 10-minute drive down the road lies the Tupelo National Battlefield, where Civil War buffs can learn about the 1864 Battle of Tupelo. On the way out of town, Ping recommends stopping by The Neon Pig (a nationally recognized, old-school butcher shop) for some road-friendly burgers or sandwiches and (non-road-friendly, but still excellent) local craft beer.

6. Spot a gator at Cypress Swamps (Jackson, MS)

This won't be your first swamp visit on this trip. On your drive into Jackson, MS, take a quick stop at the Cypress Swamp, where you can walk an easy boardwalk trail and get up close and personal with some real-life alligators.

Also on the way toward Jackson is Jeff Busby Park and the Bynum Mounds and Village Site (a prehistoric Native American burial site). At Busby Park, take a hike up the "Little Mountain," where at the top you'll be treated with 20-mile views of gorgeous ridges and valleys. 

Once you finally make it to Jackson, get a feel for both the "Old" South and the new by taking in some of the city's civil rights history, as well as its modern new neighborhoods. Visit the home of civil rights leader Medgar Evers—it's since been renovated into a museum—before stopping for lunch in the up-and-coming Fondren District. Ping recommends grabbing a vegetarian (or vegan) meal at the High Noon Cafe, located inside the all-organic Rainbow Co-op grocery store, which she says is the perfect place to pick up some "healthy road snacks," if you are so inclined.

7. Follow in the footsteps of Native Americans and early settlers by walking the "sunken trace" (Natchez, MS)

If you're looking to get a real feel for what it's like to travel through the Old South (you know, back when buffalo roamed and autombiles weren't a thing yet), then you'll want to take a hike through the "sunken" section of the Natchez Trace, which can be found at milepost 41.5 near Port Gibson. You may not be subjected to rock-hard beds, crappy food, or, y'know, cholera, but you'll most certainly have to face mosquitos and the sometimes-stifling humidity.

When you make it to Natchez, you're likely to be tuckered out thanks to the hike and the heat, so Ping recommends stopping for some chow at King's Tavern, which was built in 1789 and is the oldest standing building in Mississippi. (It's also reportedly haunted.) Once you've got some food in your stomach, hear some live music at the legendary Under-the-Hill Saloon.

8. Unwind and indulge in the 'Big Easy' (New Orleans, LA)

If you've been eating healthy and staying fit while on the road, well, you're exactly the kind of fit traveler we hoped you would be. But now, we've got to tell you, is a time to put that regimen on hold (but only for a day or two) because you're in the "Big Easy"—a.k.a. New Orleans.

New Orleans is a fantastic place to explore, so we'll just hit you with the highlights here. First off, if you're looking for an insanely packed, wild party, plan your trip around Mardi Gras (obviously). If that's not your scene, or you'd prefer a party that's a little less crowded, avoid New Orleans around Fat Tuesday at all costs.

When in Louisiana, you've also got to make a trip out to the swamp, with which the region has become practically synonymous. Take a boat tour of Honey Island Swamp, where you'll delve into marsh-covered swampland and catch a glimpse of the local wildlife. 

Finally, you've got to sample at least one perfectly sweet, magically fluffy beignet from Cafe Du Monde. They are in no way healthy, but we'll bet you can find a way to burn off those calories. Next, grab a bowl of steaming hot gumbo in the French Quarter. There are many options but Galatoire's (a century-old NOLA staple) and the Royal House Oyster Bar are tried-and-true classics.

9. Chow down on some real Southern BBQ (Houston, TX)

You've made it to the end of your hog-wild journey through the sprawling South—and what better way to celebrate a culinary high note than with some classic Texas barbecue in Houston, TX? 

Before you hit up that BBQ pit, make sure you get in just a little bit of fitness: We recommend hiking or biking one of the many trails on the Buffalo Bayou, a lush 23-acre waterfront park smack-dab in the middle of downtown Houston. After working up a bit of a sweat, head on down to Burns Original BBQ, a family owned joint specializing in smoked ribs, brisket, and housemade sausage. There are plenty of great barbecue spots in town, but this one happens to be our favorite.

On your way out, stop for a classic Southern breakfast at The Loveless Cafe, which has been serving up grub to hungry road-trippers for more than 50 years.

5. Visit the birthplace of America's 'King' (Tupelo, MS)

A trip through the South would be remiss without a visit to the house where the American legend and "King" of rock 'n' roll was born—the Elvis Presley Birthplace and Museum, located just a few minutes outside downtown Tupelo, MS. Get a firsthand look at the spot where it all began; tours of the tiny two-room structure, which Elvis' father built in 1934 for just $180, also feature authentic memorabilia and period furniture.

Just a 10-minute drive down the road lies the Tupelo National Battlefield, where Civil War buffs can learn about the 1864 Battle of Tupelo. On the way out of town, Ping recommends stopping by The Neon Pig (a nationally recognized, old-school butcher shop) for some road-friendly burgers or sandwiches and (non-road-friendly, but still excellent) local craft beer.

6. Spot a gator at Cypress Swamps (Jackson, MS)

This won't be your first swamp visit on this trip. On your drive into Jackson, MS, take a quick stop at the Cypress Swamp, where you can walk an easy boardwalk trail and get up close and personal with some real-life alligators.

Also on the way toward Jackson is Jeff Busby Park and the Bynum Mounds and Village Site (a prehistoric Native American burial site). At Busby Park, take a hike up the "Little Mountain," where at the top you'll be treated with 20-mile views of gorgeous ridges and valleys. 

Once you finally make it to Jackson, get a feel for both the "Old" South and the new by taking in some of the city's civil rights history, as well as its modern new neighborhoods. Visit the home of civil rights leader Medgar Evers—it's since been renovated into a museum—before stopping for lunch in the up-and-coming Fondren District. Ping recommends grabbing a vegetarian (or vegan) meal at the High Noon Cafe, located inside the all-organic Rainbow Co-op grocery store, which she says is the perfect place to pick up some "healthy road snacks," if you are so inclined.

7. Follow in the footsteps of Native Americans and early settlers by walking the "sunken trace" (Natchez, MS)

If you're looking to get a real feel for what it's like to travel through the Old South (you know, back when buffalo roamed and autombiles weren't a thing yet), then you'll want to take a hike through the "sunken" section of the Natchez Trace, which can be found at milepost 41.5 near Port Gibson. You may not be subjected to rock-hard beds, crappy food, or, y'know, cholera, but you'll most certainly have to face mosquitos and the sometimes-stifling humidity.

When you make it to Natchez, you're likely to be tuckered out thanks to the hike and the heat, so Ping recommends stopping for some chow at King's Tavern, which was built in 1789 and is the oldest standing building in Mississippi. (It's also reportedly haunted.) Once you've got some food in your stomach, hear some live music at the legendary Under-the-Hill Saloon.

8. Unwind and indulge in the 'Big Easy' (New Orleans, LA)

If you've been eating healthy and staying fit while on the road, well, you're exactly the kind of fit traveler we hoped you would be. But now, we've got to tell you, is a time to put that regimen on hold (but only for a day or two) because you're in the "Big Easy"—a.k.a. New Orleans.

New Orleans is a fantastic place to explore, so we'll just hit you with the highlights here. First off, if you're looking for an insanely packed, wild party, plan your trip around Mardi Gras (obviously). If that's not your scene, or you'd prefer a party that's a little less crowded, avoid New Orleans around Fat Tuesday at all costs.

When in Louisiana, you've also got to make a trip out to the swamp, with which the region has become practically synonymous. Take a boat tour of Honey Island Swamp, where you'll delve into marsh-covered swampland and catch a glimpse of the local wildlife. 

Finally, you've got to sample at least one perfectly sweet, magically fluffy beignet from Cafe Du Monde. They are in no way healthy, but we'll bet you can find a way to burn off those calories. Next, grab a bowl of steaming hot gumbo in the French Quarter. There are many options but Galatoire's (a century-old NOLA staple) and the Royal House Oyster Bar are tried-and-true classics.

9. Chow down on some real Southern BBQ (Houston, TX)

You've made it to the end of your hog-wild journey through the sprawling South—and what better way to celebrate a culinary high note than with some classic Texas barbecue in Houston, TX? 

Before you hit up that BBQ pit, make sure you get in just a little bit of fitness: We recommend hiking or biking one of the many trails on the Buffalo Bayou, a lush 23-acre waterfront park smack-dab in the middle of downtown Houston. After working up a bit of a sweat, head on down to Burns Original BBQ, a family owned joint specializing in smoked ribs, brisket, and housemade sausage. There are plenty of great barbecue spots in town, but this one happens to be our favorite.

The Mighty American Road Trip: Spot gators and feast on BBQ in the red-hot South

Erin Alexander

Sports fans know the American South first and foremost as SEC country, home to proud football colleges like the University of Tennessee, the University of Alabama, and Louisiana State University. But the Southern states have always had a hell of a lot more to offer than football—classic Southern dishes like biscuits, shrimp and grits, and fried chicken, for starters. (Yeah: If you've been saving up those "cheat meal" days, you'll love this trip.)

[RELATED1]

And don't get too worked up about all those heavenly calories you'll be chowing down throughout your journey, because with a little help from Lonely Planet editor Trisha Ping, we mapped out plenty of awesome stuff you can do to help you burn off the energy. Fitness junkies will enjoy kayaking along Shem Creek in Charleston or trekking through sunken, old trails used by early American settlers, while thrill-seekers can jump at the chance to take a flight lesson over the coast of Savannah, GA, or go spelunking just oustide of Nashville, TN.

Here's the Men's Fitness guide to road-tripping through the American South.

The Mighty American Road Trip: Spot gators and feast on BBQ in the red-hot South

1. Take a private flight over the Georgia coast (Savannah, GA)

Get exhilarating, one-of-a-kind views of Savannah, GA, from the sky during a flight lesson with Amphibian Air, which offers daytime and sunset flights with an FAA-certified flight instructor in an open-cockpit aircraft that feels a bit like riding a "motorcycle in the sky."

Film fanatics and history buffs alike ought to make note of our next pit stop in downtown Savannah—Chippewa Square. Built in 1815, Chippewa Square is home to the bus stop with the iconic bench where Tom Hanks sits in Forrest Gump. 

After a day of flying and location scouting, you're bound to have worked up a hearty appetite. Pay a visit to Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room, for some "traditional family style Southern cooking," recommends Jamie Jensen, certified road trip expert and author of Road Trip USA.

2. Kayak Shem Creek before chowing down on some local biscuits (Charleston, SC)

Perfectly manicured gardens, brightly colored (and beautiful) historic buildings, genteel locals, delicious Southern cooking: That's Charleston.

Since our Southern road trip admittedly offers ample opportunities to sample the region's delicious (albeit calorie-rich) cuisine, we'll begin our stop in Charleston with something that'll burn a few calories. Go kayaking, canoeing, or even paddleboarding, around Shem Creek; you'll get to explore the area's local salt marshes, and might even catch a glimpse of a dolphin. And if you happen to stop through town in April, sign up for the Cooper River Bridge Run, an annual 10-km race.

After taking a stroll through downtown Charleston, make up that calorie deficit with a stop to Callie's Charleston Biscuits—they're flaky, tasty, and dangerously addictive. For dinner, swing by the Macintosh, where Executive Chef Jeremiah Bacon serves up a modern fare using fresh, local ingredients.

3. Take a turn (or five) down Sliding Rock in Pisgah National Forest (Asheville, NC)

The water is damn near freezing (which can be a godsend during the humid summer months), but you won't regret accelerating down the polished, stony incline of Sliding Rock at Pisgah National Forest. An easy 40-minute drive from downtown Asheville, NC, Pisgah is an outdoorsman's paradise, with an endless supply of scenic trails, cascading waterfalls, fishing, and camping.

On your way out, stop by Dolly's Dairy Bar and Gift Shop, a local favorite located just a few minutes outside the forest's main entrance. We can tell you from experience: It's some of the best ice cream you'll ever indulge in—and totally worthy of a cheat meal.

Back in Asheville, stop by Tupelo Honey Cafe, another one of our editor-approved spots for tasty Southern fare made from scratch. And if you're looking to plan a more leisurely day (how Southern of you), make a trip to the Biltmore Estate, where you can roam the grounds of America's largest home and even visit the estate's winery, which offers daily tours and tastings.

4. Go spelunking in Cumberland Caverns (Nashville, TN)

If you've never been spelunking (and you're not at all claustrophobic), you've got to make a day trip to Cumberland Caverns, a little over an hour outside of downtown Nashville. More than 300 feet below ground, Cumberland Caverns allows you to check out over 32 miles of incredible rock formations, untouched subterannean waterfalls, and picturesque caves.

Back in Nashville, you definitely won't want to miss out on the thriving music and bar scene. Ping recommends making a visit to Bobby's Idle Hour, a "no-frills, locals-only dive" that has live music daily without the downtown crowds. For a great locally crafted beer, Ping also suggests making a visit to Bearded Iris Brewing, which offers up brews that range from sours to lagers and Belgian ales, and features a "small taproom with an elegant speakeasy vibe."

The Mighty American Road Trip: Spot gators and feast on BBQ in the red-hot South

Erin Alexander

Sports fans know the American South first and foremost as SEC country, home to proud football colleges like the University of Tennessee, the University of Alabama, and Louisiana State University. But the Southern states have always had a hell of a lot more to offer than football—classic Southern dishes like biscuits, shrimp and grits, and fried chicken, for starters. (Yeah: If you've been saving up those "cheat meal" days, you'll love this trip.)

[RELATED1]

And don't get too worked up about all those heavenly calories you'll be chowing down throughout your journey, because with a little help from Lonely Planet editor Trisha Ping, we mapped out plenty of awesome stuff you can do to help you burn off the energy. Fitness junkies will enjoy kayaking along Shem Creek in Charleston or trekking through sunken, old trails used by early American settlers, while thrill-seekers can jump at the chance to take a flight lesson over the coast of Savannah, GA, or go spelunking just oustide of Nashville, TN.

Here's the Men's Fitness guide to road-tripping through the American South.

The Mighty American Road Trip: Spot gators and feast on BBQ in the red-hot South

1. Take a private flight over the Georgia coast (Savannah, GA)

Get exhilarating, one-of-a-kind views of Savannah, GA, from the sky during a flight lesson with Amphibian Air, which offers daytime and sunset flights with an FAA-certified flight instructor in an open-cockpit aircraft that feels a bit like riding a "motorcycle in the sky."

Film fanatics and history buffs alike ought to make note of our next pit stop in downtown Savannah—Chippewa Square. Built in 1815, Chippewa Square is home to the bus stop with the iconic bench where Tom Hanks sits in Forrest Gump. 

After a day of flying and location scouting, you're bound to have worked up a hearty appetite. Pay a visit to Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room, for some "traditional family style Southern cooking," recommends Jamie Jensen, certified road trip expert and author of Road Trip USA.

2. Kayak Shem Creek before chowing down on some local biscuits (Charleston, SC)

Perfectly manicured gardens, brightly colored (and beautiful) historic buildings, genteel locals, delicious Southern cooking: That's Charleston.

Since our Southern road trip admittedly offers ample opportunities to sample the region's delicious (albeit calorie-rich) cuisine, we'll begin our stop in Charleston with something that'll burn a few calories. Go kayaking, canoeing, or even paddleboarding, around Shem Creek; you'll get to explore the area's local salt marshes, and might even catch a glimpse of a dolphin. And if you happen to stop through town in April, sign up for the Cooper River Bridge Run, an annual 10-km race.

After taking a stroll through downtown Charleston, make up that calorie deficit with a stop to Callie's Charleston Biscuits—they're flaky, tasty, and dangerously addictive. For dinner, swing by the Macintosh, where Executive Chef Jeremiah Bacon serves up a modern fare using fresh, local ingredients.

3. Take a turn (or five) down Sliding Rock in Pisgah National Forest (Asheville, NC)

The water is damn near freezing (which can be a godsend during the humid summer months), but you won't regret accelerating down the polished, stony incline of Sliding Rock at Pisgah National Forest. An easy 40-minute drive from downtown Asheville, NC, Pisgah is an outdoorsman's paradise, with an endless supply of scenic trails, cascading waterfalls, fishing, and camping.

On your way out, stop by Dolly's Dairy Bar and Gift Shop, a local favorite located just a few minutes outside the forest's main entrance. We can tell you from experience: It's some of the best ice cream you'll ever indulge in—and totally worthy of a cheat meal.

Back in Asheville, stop by Tupelo Honey Cafe, another one of our editor-approved spots for tasty Southern fare made from scratch. And if you're looking to plan a more leisurely day (how Southern of you), make a trip to the Biltmore Estate, where you can roam the grounds of America's largest home and even visit the estate's winery, which offers daily tours and tastings.

4. Go spelunking in Cumberland Caverns (Nashville, TN)

If you've never been spelunking (and you're not at all claustrophobic), you've got to make a day trip to Cumberland Caverns, a little over an hour outside of downtown Nashville. More than 300 feet below ground, Cumberland Caverns allows you to check out over 32 miles of incredible rock formations, untouched subterannean waterfalls, and picturesque caves.

Back in Nashville, you definitely won't want to miss out on the thriving music and bar scene. Ping recommends making a visit to Bobby's Idle Hour, a "no-frills, locals-only dive" that has live music daily without the downtown crowds. For a great locally crafted beer, Ping also suggests making a visit to Bearded Iris Brewing, which offers up brews that range from sours to lagers and Belgian ales, and features a "small taproom with an elegant speakeasy vibe."

On your way out, stop for a classic Southern breakfast at The Loveless Cafe, which has been serving up grub to hungry road-trippers for more than 50 years.

5. Visit the birthplace of America's 'King' (Tupelo, MS)

A trip through the South would be remiss without a visit to the house where the American legend and "King" of rock 'n' roll was born—the Elvis Presley Birthplace and Museum, located just a few minutes outside downtown Tupelo, MS. Get a firsthand look at the spot where it all began; tours of the tiny two-room structure, which Elvis' father built in 1934 for just $180, also feature authentic memorabilia and period furniture.

Just a 10-minute drive down the road lies the Tupelo National Battlefield, where Civil War buffs can learn about the 1864 Battle of Tupelo. On the way out of town, Ping recommends stopping by The Neon Pig (a nationally recognized, old-school butcher shop) for some road-friendly burgers or sandwiches and (non-road-friendly, but still excellent) local craft beer.

6. Spot a gator at Cypress Swamps (Jackson, MS)

This won't be your first swamp visit on this trip. On your drive into Jackson, MS, take a quick stop at the Cypress Swamp, where you can walk an easy boardwalk trail and get up close and personal with some real-life alligators.

Also on the way toward Jackson is Jeff Busby Park and the Bynum Mounds and Village Site (a prehistoric Native American burial site). At Busby Park, take a hike up the "Little Mountain," where at the top you'll be treated with 20-mile views of gorgeous ridges and valleys. 

Once you finally make it to Jackson, get a feel for both the "Old" South and the new by taking in some of the city's civil rights history, as well as its modern new neighborhoods. Visit the home of civil rights leader Medgar Evers—it's since been renovated into a museum—before stopping for lunch in the up-and-coming Fondren District. Ping recommends grabbing a vegetarian (or vegan) meal at the High Noon Cafe, located inside the all-organic Rainbow Co-op grocery store, which she says is the perfect place to pick up some "healthy road snacks," if you are so inclined.

7. Follow in the footsteps of Native Americans and early settlers by walking the "sunken trace" (Natchez, MS)

If you're looking to get a real feel for what it's like to travel through the Old South (you know, back when buffalo roamed and autombiles weren't a thing yet), then you'll want to take a hike through the "sunken" section of the Natchez Trace, which can be found at milepost 41.5 near Port Gibson. You may not be subjected to rock-hard beds, crappy food, or, y'know, cholera, but you'll most certainly have to face mosquitos and the sometimes-stifling humidity.

When you make it to Natchez, you're likely to be tuckered out thanks to the hike and the heat, so Ping recommends stopping for some chow at King's Tavern, which was built in 1789 and is the oldest standing building in Mississippi. (It's also reportedly haunted.) Once you've got some food in your stomach, hear some live music at the legendary Under-the-Hill Saloon.

8. Unwind and indulge in the 'Big Easy' (New Orleans, LA)

If you've been eating healthy and staying fit while on the road, well, you're exactly the kind of fit traveler we hoped you would be. But now, we've got to tell you, is a time to put that regimen on hold (but only for a day or two) because you're in the "Big Easy"—a.k.a. New Orleans.

New Orleans is a fantastic place to explore, so we'll just hit you with the highlights here. First off, if you're looking for an insanely packed, wild party, plan your trip around Mardi Gras (obviously). If that's not your scene, or you'd prefer a party that's a little less crowded, avoid New Orleans around Fat Tuesday at all costs.

When in Louisiana, you've also got to make a trip out to the swamp, with which the region has become practically synonymous. Take a boat tour of Honey Island Swamp, where you'll delve into marsh-covered swampland and catch a glimpse of the local wildlife. 

Finally, you've got to sample at least one perfectly sweet, magically fluffy beignet from Cafe Du Monde. They are in no way healthy, but we'll bet you can find a way to burn off those calories. Next, grab a bowl of steaming hot gumbo in the French Quarter. There are many options but Galatoire's (a century-old NOLA staple) and the Royal House Oyster Bar are tried-and-true classics.

9. Chow down on some real Southern BBQ (Houston, TX)

You've made it to the end of your hog-wild journey through the sprawling South—and what better way to celebrate a culinary high note than with some classic Texas barbecue in Houston, TX? 

Before you hit up that BBQ pit, make sure you get in just a little bit of fitness: We recommend hiking or biking one of the many trails on the Buffalo Bayou, a lush 23-acre waterfront park smack-dab in the middle of downtown Houston. After working up a bit of a sweat, head on down to Burns Original BBQ, a family owned joint specializing in smoked ribs, brisket, and housemade sausage. There are plenty of great barbecue spots in town, but this one happens to be our favorite.

You may not be subjected to rock-hard beds, crappy food, or, y'know, cholera, but you'll most certainly have to face mosquitos and the sometimes-stifling humidity.

When you make it to Natchez, you're likely to be tuckered out thanks to the hike and the heat, so Ping recommends stopping for some chow at King's Tavern, which was built in 1789 and is the oldest standing building in Mississippi. (It's also reportedly haunted.) Once you've got some food in your stomach, hear some live music at the legendary Under-the-Hill Saloon.

8. Unwind and indulge in the 'Big Easy' (New Orleans, LA)

If you've been eating healthy and staying fit while on the road, well, you're exactly the kind of fit traveler we hoped you would be. But now, we've got to tell you, is a time to put that regimen on hold (but only for a day or two) because you're in the "Big Easy"—a.k.a. New Orleans.

New Orleans is a fantastic place to explore, so we'll just hit you with the highlights here. First off, if you're looking for an insanely packed, wild party, plan your trip around Mardi Gras (obviously). If that's not your scene, or you'd prefer a party that's a little less crowded, avoid New Orleans around Fat Tuesday at all costs.

When in Louisiana, you've also got to make a trip out to the swamp, with which the region has become practically synonymous. Take a boat tour of Honey Island Swamp, where you'll delve into marsh-covered swampland and catch a glimpse of the local wildlife. 

Finally, you've got to sample at least one perfectly sweet, magically fluffy beignet from Cafe Du Monde. They are in no way healthy, but we'll bet you can find a way to burn off those calories. Next, grab a bowl of steaming hot gumbo in the French Quarter. There are many options but Galatoire's (a century-old NOLA staple) and the Royal House Oyster Bar are tried-and-true classics.

9. Chow down on some real Southern BBQ (Houston, TX)

You've made it to the end of your hog-wild journey through the sprawling South—and what better way to celebrate a culinary high note than with some classic Texas barbecue in Houston, TX? 

Before you hit up that BBQ pit, make sure you get in just a little bit of fitness: We recommend hiking or biking one of the many trails on the Buffalo Bayou, a lush 23-acre waterfront park smack-dab in the middle of downtown Houston. After working up a bit of a sweat, head on down to Burns Original BBQ, a family owned joint specializing in smoked ribs, brisket, and housemade sausage. There are plenty of great barbecue spots in town, but this one happens to be our favorite.

The Mighty American Road Trip: Spot gators and feast on BBQ in the red-hot South

Erin Alexander

Sports fans know the American South first and foremost as SEC country, home to proud football colleges like the University of Tennessee, the University of Alabama, and Louisiana State University. But the Southern states have always had a hell of a lot more to offer than football—classic Southern dishes like biscuits, shrimp and grits, and fried chicken, for starters. (Yeah: If you've been saving up those "cheat meal" days, you'll love this trip.)

And don't get too worked up about all those heavenly calories you'll be chowing down throughout your journey, because with a little help from Lonely Planet editor Trisha Ping, we mapped out plenty of awesome stuff you can do to help you burn off the energy. Fitness junkies will enjoy kayaking along Shem Creek in Charleston or trekking through sunken, old trails used by early American settlers, while thrill-seekers can jump at the chance to take a flight lesson over the coast of Savannah, GA, or go spelunking just oustide of Nashville, TN.

Here's the Men's Fitness guide to road-tripping through the American South.

1. Take a private flight over the Georgia coast (Savannah, GA)

Get exhilarating, one-of-a-kind views of Savannah, GA, from the sky during a flight lesson with Amphibian Air, which offers daytime and sunset flights with an FAA-certified flight instructor in an open-cockpit aircraft that feels a bit like riding a "motorcycle in the sky."

Film fanatics and history buffs alike ought to make note of our next pit stop in downtown Savannah—Chippewa Square. Built in 1815, Chippewa Square is home to the bus stop with the iconic bench where Tom Hanks sits in Forrest Gump. 

After a day of flying and location scouting, you're bound to have worked up a hearty appetite. Pay a visit to Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room, for some "traditional family style Southern cooking," recommends Jamie Jensen, certified road trip expert and author of Road Trip USA.

2. Kayak Shem Creek before chowing down on some local biscuits (Charleston, SC)

Perfectly manicured gardens, brightly colored (and beautiful) historic buildings, genteel locals, delicious Southern cooking: That's Charleston.

Since our Southern road trip admittedly offers ample opportunities to sample the region's delicious (albeit calorie-rich) cuisine, we'll begin our stop in Charleston with something that'll burn a few calories. Go kayaking, canoeing, or even paddleboarding, around Shem Creek; you'll get to explore the area's local salt marshes, and might even catch a glimpse of a dolphin. And if you happen to stop through town in April, sign up for the Cooper River Bridge Run, an annual 10-km race.

After taking a stroll through downtown Charleston, make up that calorie deficit with a stop to Callie's Charleston Biscuits—they're flaky, tasty, and dangerously addictive. For dinner, swing by the Macintosh, where Executive Chef Jeremiah Bacon serves up a modern fare using fresh, local ingredients.

3. Take a turn (or five) down Sliding Rock in Pisgah National Forest (Asheville, NC)

The water is damn near freezing (which can be a godsend during the humid summer months), but you won't regret accelerating down the polished, stony incline of Sliding Rock at Pisgah National Forest. An easy 40-minute drive from downtown Asheville, NC, Pisgah is an outdoorsman's paradise, with an endless supply of scenic trails, cascading waterfalls, fishing, and camping.

On your way out, stop by Dolly's Dairy Bar and Gift Shop, a local favorite located just a few minutes outside the forest's main entrance. We can tell you from experience: It's some of the best ice cream you'll ever indulge in—and totally worthy of a cheat meal.

Back in Asheville, stop by Tupelo Honey Cafe, another one of our editor-approved spots for tasty Southern fare made from scratch. And if you're looking to plan a more leisurely day (how Southern of you), make a trip to the Biltmore Estate, where you can roam the grounds of America's largest home and even visit the estate's winery, which offers daily tours and tastings.

4. Go spelunking in Cumberland Caverns (Nashville, TN)

If you've never been spelunking (and you're not at all claustrophobic), you've got to make a day trip to Cumberland Caverns, a little over an hour outside of downtown Nashville. More than 300 feet below ground, Cumberland Caverns allows you to check out over 32 miles of incredible rock formations, untouched subterannean waterfalls, and picturesque caves.

Back in Nashville, you definitely won't want to miss out on the thriving music and bar scene. Ping recommends making a visit to Bobby's Idle Hour, a "no-frills, locals-only dive" that has live music daily without the downtown crowds. For a great locally crafted beer, Ping also suggests making a visit to Bearded Iris Brewing, which offers up brews that range from sours to lagers and Belgian ales, and features a "small taproom with an elegant speakeasy vibe."

On your way out, stop for a classic Southern breakfast at The Loveless Cafe, which has been serving up grub to hungry road-trippers for more than 50 years.

5. Visit the birthplace of America's 'King' (Tupelo, MS)

A trip through the South would be remiss without a visit to the house where the American legend and "King" of rock 'n' roll was born—the Elvis Presley Birthplace and Museum, located just a few minutes outside downtown Tupelo, MS. Get a firsthand look at the spot where it all began; tours of the tiny two-room structure, which Elvis' father built in 1934 for just $180, also feature authentic memorabilia and period furniture.

Just a 10-minute drive down the road lies the Tupelo National Battlefield, where Civil War buffs can learn about the 1864 Battle of Tupelo. On the way out of town, Ping recommends stopping by The Neon Pig (a nationally recognized, old-school butcher shop) for some road-friendly burgers or sandwiches and (non-road-friendly, but still excellent) local craft beer.

6. Spot a gator at Cypress Swamps (Jackson, MS)

This won't be your first swamp visit on this trip. On your drive into Jackson, MS, take a quick stop at the Cypress Swamp, where you can walk an easy boardwalk trail and get up close and personal with some real-life alligators.

Also on the way toward Jackson is Jeff Busby Park and the Bynum Mounds and Village Site (a prehistoric Native American burial site). At Busby Park, take a hike up the "Little Mountain," where at the top you'll be treated with 20-mile views of gorgeous ridges and valleys. 

Once you finally make it to Jackson, get a feel for both the "Old" South and the new by taking in some of the city's civil rights history, as well as its modern new neighborhoods. Visit the home of civil rights leader Medgar Evers—it's since been renovated into a museum—before stopping for lunch in the up-and-coming Fondren District. Ping recommends grabbing a vegetarian (or vegan) meal at the High Noon Cafe, located inside the all-organic Rainbow Co-op grocery store, which she says is the perfect place to pick up some "healthy road snacks," if you are so inclined.
