DETAILED ITINERARY:

Day 1: Hua Hin: Start with a luxurious winery tour before exploring a traditional floating market!

Source: About Time Magazine

Sawasdee Thailand! After you have arrived at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport, collect your bags and it’s time to take a car ride to Hua Hin! The best way to get to Hua Hin hire a private transfer from Klook’s private chartered car with driver – this will make your road trip more comfortable and convenient as it will drop you off directly at your resort. You can also opt for a couch ride from Bell Travel Service at approximately THB419 per pax, located at the airport bus station.

Just 3-hours away from Bangkok by car, Hua Hin is a holiday resort with an old world charm. Known for its dreamy stretches of white sandy shore, it is a small town with resorts, guesthouses, and eateries, it’s no wonder it’s called “The City that meets the Sea”. Once you’ve checked in to your resort, grab a light snack before heading off to your first spot of the day! 

Take a Songthaew from your resort to Monsoon Valley Vineyard and make a pitstop at The Sala (their restaurant) for lunch! Overlooking sweeping views of the entire vineyard and surrounding valleys, this restaurant is a Thai-inspired open-air pavilion housing exhibits of viticulture and oenology. Try their Monsoon Valley Shiraz coupled their traditional pad Thai before finishing off with a delectable cheesecake dessert! 

Afterwards, you can start your tour of the main attraction - the vineyard itself! For 100 Baht per person, they offer a 15-minute winery tour through the picturesque vineyards! Mountain bikes can also be rented for 100B for thirty minutes, or 150B for an hour, and in retrospect would have been a lovely way to explore - if you aren’t too tipsy to cycle! 

Next stop, Sam Pan Nam Floating Market! Just 30 minutes away via Songthaew or Grab, this floating market is filled with over 200 shops and 40 boat sellers! It features a large man-made lake, surrounded by picturesque countryside. Stroll around at your own pace, and let the floating market scene slowly unfold as you go along or you can step aboard a boat and watch the scene from a different perspective. Shop and snack your evening away!

Finally end your night at The Venezia, easily accessible by a Songthaew less than 25 minutes away, where you can experience a taste of Italy. With famous replicas like the famous San Marcos square bell tower, a 200-meter Grand Canal with gondola rides, and Rome’s Fonatana di trevi – this open-air shopping destination exudes the romance and charm of Venice, Italy. You’ll find over a hundred tiny little shops found here, including music gardens, 3D art galleries, mini trains, horse drawn buggies, and upside-down houses – not your average shopping destination with whimsical details all around.

Day 2: Hua Hin - Visit farms and explore hipster scenic spots 

Source: Hua Hin Spaces

Rise and shine for the early grind! Start your day with some decadent breakfast here at 1000Sook Food and Farm. Only 20 minutes away from the city by Grab, the country style restaurant serves Thai and Western food and some pretty delicious desserts. The farm’s mini market sells Thai snacks from all over Thailand at very affordable rates, some say much cheaper than markets in Hua Hin. If you dine in the restaurant or purchase goods at the grocers at 1000 Sook you receive a free entrance to the farm!

After a hearty meal, say hello to the furry friends at 1000 Sook Food and Farm! Visit the animals in this American style farm containing bunnies, ponies, sheep and chickens! For 30 baht per person, you can feed the animals as well! Once you are done at the farm, there's a great supermarket selling local products which can be cheaper than markets in Hua Hin town.

Want to feel like a Greek Goddess? Visit Huahin’s own little Santorini – Santorini Amusement Park, a stone’s throw from 1000Sook Food and Farm, 7 minutes away by taxi! It will feel as though you’ve just stepped out of Asia and into little Santorini, the Grecian paradise island. There are many rides and attractions throughout the park, as well as art, quirky shopping with local and international brands, entertainment and cafes. Painted white and blue, the walls contain beautiful architecture and decorations, perfect for that instagram feed. 

For dinner, chill out at Thailand’s first ever beachfront shopping mall, 20 minutes away via Songthaew! It’s easy to fall in love with the laid back atmosphere at Seenspace for it stylish mall houses cafes, hipster shops, bars, and even live jazz funk music performances. Also, almost every twist and turn in this open-air, industrial mall is rather elegant. It’s little wonder so many local and foreign tourists alike flock here for impromptu photoshoots (me included).

One of the most popular places in Seenspace is Oasis, a luxurious beachfront bar that features a gorgeous infinity pool facing the ocean. The bar is swarming with people during the sunset hour, so arrive early if you want to grab the poolside bed for the best views. 

For a dose of art, culture and more shopping, visit Cicada Night Market. If you’re here during the weekend, Cicada Night Market is where you’ll want to be. By night, the lights are simply mesmerising.The market itself is subdivided into 4 unique venues: Cicada Art Factory, Cicada Cuisine, Art à la Mode, and Amphitheatre. A trendy flea market selling a variety of art decorations, hand-made souvenirs, clothing, footwear, decorative items, etc. There is also an open-air food court and an amphitheatre style garden where there are performances together with music. This is the place for you to just chill out, relax and appreciate the art before you head back to your resort. 

Day 3: Hua Hin - Market hopping and historical sites!

Start your morning with breakfast in enchanted elegance. Merely 10 minutes away from the city, here at Bliss Bakery & Café House, they serve continental breakfast and fresh-baked pastries - decorated in a European colonial setting. Remember to fill up on food so you have ample energy for the fun day ahead!

Fill your Instagram with a blast from the past! Make your way to Hua Hin Railway Station, one of the country’s most beautiful train stations marked by its meticulous details in architecture. A remnant of bygone times, the picturesque Hua Hin train station is one of the stops on the route from Bangkok to the South. The station is located in the center of town, within walking distance from attractions as the night market and the main beach. You need to visit this historic railway station to complete your trip to Hua Hin!

Around 10 minutes walking-distance from Hua Hin Railway Station lies the peaceful Hua Hin Beach. Enjoy the sea breeze as you take a walk along the beachside, marveling at the azure blue waters and feeling your toes in the sand! Take a short horse ride down the beach as well, for you can hire horses from the beach mainly outside Sofitel Resort, or anywhere you see a vacant horse and handler on the beach!

Take a 10 minute walk to Jek Piah Hua Hin Day Market (also known as Hua Hin Day market) to have some lunch! For an experience of a real Thai market, Hua Hin Day Market is a fascinating insight into Thailand's way of life. You will find countless outlets and stands selling delicious food which is freshly cooked and served to you within a matter of minutes. Don’t forget to take a look behind the stalls on the pavement, because there are plenty of restaurants there as well. Other than the food, you'll discover an overwhelming variety of local handicrafts, souvenirs and clothing on sale.

Immerse yourself in a true Thai cultural experience by taking the short trip from Hua Hin city center to Baan Sillapin. You will experience Thai art first hand, while observing and interacting with the nineteen different in-house artists: painters, sculptors, and moulders. Feeling inspired? For an additional fee (that’s really easy on the pocket!), you may partake in an art class instructed by one of Baan Sillapin’s professional artists.

Whether you fancy bringing paint to canvas or turning pottery, you will certainly inspire your inner creative genius. Conveniently, these classes are tailored to accommodate all ages and skill-levels! 

End your night off by having dinner at this quintessential American-inspired cottage – Wilaiwan Hua Hin. Easily accessible via Grab, be charmed by this beautiful pastel-blue American-inspired cottage house. If you’re looking for a lovely place to have dinner and end your day, this is the place to be. Wilaiwan Hua Hin is a good chilling place with its beautiful decor, perfect to end the day off.

Day 4: Hua Hin - Day trip to the national park!

Source: Adventure In You

Snack on some breakfast at your resort before beginning your morning with an hour and a half drive away from Hua Hin city. The first stop? Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park, translated as the “mountain of 300 peaks”. The national park is well-known for its beautiful limestone mountains, pristine beaches and hidden caves that will make any nature lover ecstatic. To enter the park, you’ll need to pay a one-time entry fee of 200 Baht per pax to the National Park’s headquarters before you proceed.

One of the main attractions of the park is the beautiful Phraya Nakhon Cave. Inside stands the majestic Khuha Kharuehat Pavilion, and is truly an enchanting sight to marvel at. The optimal time to visit the cave is around 10:30AM, when the morning light would stream in from the ceiling and bathe the pavilion’s roof in a golden glow. To get to the cave, drive 20 minutes from the national park headquarters to Bang Po beach. At Bang Po beach, you can either hike or take a boat to Laem Sala Beach, where the trail to the Phraya Nakhon Cave begins. The former is a short 2km hike over a small hill with many rocky steps. The walk takes about 15 minutes.

After roughing it out in nature, enjoy a short and scenic stroll through Thailand’s largest freshwater marsh, Thung Sam Roi Yot. The marsh is a 35-minute drive from Khao Daeng Viewpoint, and is a wonderful place to take photos and chill out at. It’s also a popular place for bird-watching enthusiasts as many resident and migratory birds frequent the area. Do take care if you walk further down the boardwalk as the condition is dilapidated and weather-beaten. Some wooden planks are dislodged, and have not been repaired yet.

Have a cosy colonial bistro along the beach at The Living Room! There is a 50s style wooden beach house overlooking the beach and majority of the bistro is alfresco seating, with formal tables and bean bags for you to choose. The menu is inclusive of Thai, International and Fusion dishes. 

After a hearty meal, head back to your accommodation to freshen up before exploring the Hua Hin Night Market. At first glance, it doesn’t look any different to other ubiquitous night markets. You’ll come across vendors selling the usual wares like bracelets, elephant pants, tropical fruit, and odd-shaped slippers. Still, it’s a fun place to walk through and window-shop. But further down the street, you’ll spot many restaurants selling a plethora of seafood. From salt-crusted fish to grilled prawns and even cheese lobsters, it’s too easy to splurge and overeat. Try Rod Fai Seafood, famous for their succulent black pepper and garlic scallops and the spicy mixed seafood hotplate!

 Day 5: Hua Hin to Bangkok

Source: Unsplash

Wake up early to catch the Sunrise at Wat Khao Takiap! 15 minutes away by Grab from the city center, this small Buddhist temple is located at the top of Khao Takiap (also known as Chopstick Hill) and offers scenic views of the Gulf of Thailand. Along the perimeter of the temple, there is a long row of metal bells where you can use a coin to ring them before donating it for good luck. 

Beyond Khao Takiab Temple and viewpoint, lies Takiab Bay; easily missed it if you didn't know it was there. In addition to being a nice beach with clear water there are also elephant rides, boats to offshore islands including Koh Singto and a cluster of restaurants grill up some of the freshest seafood in Hua Hin. Heading back to the main road, a 10-minute stroll back north will take you past the gates to Wat Khao Krai Lad, another hilltop temple with an old ordination hall at its peak.

Once you are finished with lunch, it’s time to head back to the city of Bangkok! Another 3 hour private car ride from Hua Hin’s city center will bring you directly to your hotel in Bangkok. Rest and freshen up before you head out into the City of Angels. 

End your day on a high note, 30 minutes from the city center via Grab to Chocolate Ville. Chocolate Ville is a mini themed dining park designed to look like an old European village, complete with chapel, barn, historical clock tower, railway station and candy-coloured shops. With its quaint European-inspired landscape, you probably won’t feel like you’re in Bangkok at all! Best part? Admission to Chocolate Ville is completely free. You just need to pay for the food if you’re eating here! 

As night falls, feel free to choose your table – be it at the lakeside, outdoor or indoor area, and you’ll be given the same menu. Do note that all the food is served from one central kitchen, therefore you can choose to dine anywhere in the complex, such as along the river canal or in one of the pretty buildings. The menu offers a dizzying variety of Thai food and international cuisine dishes. We browsed through pages upon pages of Thai, Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Japanese and Western dishes. Here’s a tip! Sitting by the  lakeside is highly recommended as the view will be incredibly gorgeous - great for photos! 

Day 6: Bangkok - Unique Instagram spots in Bangkok! 

Source: Sea of Blush

It’s time to spend the next two days visiting the hidden instagramable gems of Bangkok! Depart from your hotel bright and early in the morning to the unique airplane graveyard located at Ramkhamhaeng Road, accessible only via Grab. Derelict airplane bodies litter the yard, a sombre sight for some. Always wanted to sit in the cockpit? This is your chance! There are multiple airplanes you can explore and you can take the coolest pictures. It’s not fully abandoned though, there is a family living in one of the airplanes. Be prepared to pay around 200 baht per person to enter the property. I recommend getting there early to avoid the sauna-like cockpits. You can get to the airplane graveyard by taxi or by river taxi (way cheaper). Go to Wat Sriboonreun (last stop of the Khlong Saen Saeb), and from there it’s just a short walk.

Next stop, possibly one of Bangkok’s dreamiest places for afternoon tea, the Author’s Lounge at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. Back in the city, this cafe  is old but most definitely gold. The serene white furniture, wall panels, and elegant imperial staircase makes it one of the most tranquil spaces in the city. The lighting here is even better when warmed by the natural sunlight that seeps through the overhead skylights.

If you’re willing to take a trek out all the way to Chang Erawan (accessible by BTS), you’ll be greatly rewarded by the incredible visual phenomenon that is the Erawan Museum. With gorgeously ornate pink architecture on the outside and sweeping, swirling sculptures on the inside, be sure to bring a fully-charged camera. The Erawan Museum is truly a magnificent example of great architecture and design. The colorful stained-glass ceiling, as well as the pastel pink walls and stairs, are the highlight of this museum. The three storeys of the museum pertain to the underworld, earth and Heaven according to the Hindu representation of the universe. The museum also showcases a vast collection of artefacts from across different eras. The pink pastel walls and stained glass in the background, these photos always turn out IG-worthy!

After you are done admiring the visuals of Chang Erawan and it’s museum, take a 20 minute  grab ride to this obscure but beautiful gallery. An art gallery, a screening room, a rooftop bar, and an event space rolled into one — Woof Pack houses cool works of contemporary art as well as stickers of funny quotes that you’ll come across if you hunt around the many corners of this place. Head up to the ‘Woof Top’ for sweeping views of the city and some drinks to feature — responsibly — in that ‘gram.

Head to Sala Daeng, a 10 minute away and hop on a BTS Train to Chit Lom Train Station! Walk for another 10 minutes to Talad Neon Night Market, a hipster night market right in the heart of the city! Unlike what you would expect from a usual night market, Talad Neon is helmed by the younger generation of Thai entrepreneurs who know how to cater to the hipster crowd. You can expect to find organized rows of beautifully set up neon stalls, food trucks and shipping container shops where aesthetically pleasing wares are being sold! Impeccably presented food and incredible night scenery, feel free to instagram your night away!

Day 7: Bangkok - Temple visit and Cafe Hopping

Source: khaosod Thailand

Time to make the best of your last day here in Bangkok! Grab some breakfast and head out, 40km away from Bangkok’s city center to visit the Dragon Temple! Truly one of the most impressive temples you’ll ever have laid eyes upon the red-and-green dragon curling around the building is simply a sculpture, a magnificent one to say the least. What’s more, you can even climb up to the top of the tower – through the dragon! If you want an IG-worthy shot, don’t go all the way to the foot of the tower. Remember, you want to capture the Dragon Temple and yourself in one shot!

Once you are admiring the beauty of the Dragon Temple, it’s time to head out to Warehouse 30. Grab to BTS Saphan Taksin and walk 15 minute over to this  old warehouse space on Soi CharoenKrung 30 divided up into a store, a cafe, clothes shop, motorcycle showroom, flower shop, bookshop and an open theatre. By doing an adaptive reuse rather than constructing a new building that wouldn’t fit the neighborhood, Warehouse 30 seems committed to transforming Charoen Krung into a “creative district.” 

Next door is an open market that features Casa Lapin Lux’s beautiful flower shop Wallflower, a home decor and design item zone curated by Warehouse 30’s own project manager, Rungsima Kasikranung, and a motorbike enthusiasts’ accessories store called 8080Rubber. 

The last two warehouses make up the Open market zone, which will feature an 80-seat screening room operated by the Documentary Club, a design and architecture-centric independent bookstore by Candide, a retail shop by Copperwired, a vinyl music corner, a raw juice bar called Raw & Real and an eco-friendly organic corner selling locally sourced fruits and vegetables, superfoods and biodegradable products. Another 20 sq meters of space have been left as a multi-purpose area which the owners will hire out for activities, workshops and art exhibitions. 

While you still have time, visit The Hidden Milk Bar & Foto Club, a short walk away! This eye-popping milk bar on the third floor of Fotoclub in Soi Charoenkrung 32 is permeated with cute, from the tables and walls in different shades of pink to the counter bar lined with boxes and bags of groceries. The menu offerings are likewise coated with sugary sweetness, including the Jaffa milkshake with dark chocolate, orange and chocolate chips, and baked goodies on rotation like M&M soft cookies and pretzel brownies.

Head back to your hotel, pack your luggages and it’s time to head to the airport! Head to Phaya Thai BTS station and take exit 5 for the Airport Link, straight to Suvarnabhumi Airport.

Which hiking trails are best  in the world?

Hiking is my hands-down favorite travel activity. There’s just so much that you can see in this world that’s only accessible by foot, over mountaintops, glaciers, and through canyons and gorges. Over the past five years, these have been my favorite hikes from all around the world. They range in difficulty and length, though they all have one thing in common: They’re stunning.

From Kyrgyzstan to Patagonia, South Africa, the Swiss Alps, the American Southwest, and so many amazing things in-between, here are a few of the best hiking trails in the world.

1. Ala Kol Lake, Kyrgyzstan: Moderate (57 km, 35.4 mi)

This gem in Central Asia is the country’s most popular trek, though still flying well under the radar of similarly beautiful treks elsewhere in the world. The trail is blanketed with wild flowers in just about every color, and once you get to the top of the pass, the views in every direction are just magical.

Some parts of the trail are incredibly steep, though overall, no technical know-how is needed and the trail is clearly marked, unless you want to add on extra days in either direction in which case there is no trail. Make friends with the locals along the way, sleep in a yurt for a night, and experience why Kyrgyzstan is the Patagonia of Central Asia. Read more about the trek here. what to wear on a hike and still look cute http://www.savvyhiking.com/what-to-wear-on-a-hike-and-still-look-cute

2. Inca Trail, Peru: Moderate (33.7km, 21 miles)

The Inca Trail is unquestionably a bucket list hike with gorgeous Incan ruins all along the way, culminating at Machu Picchu, one of the ancient Wonders of the World. The amazing thing about the trail is it’s still 85% intact exactly the way that the ancient Incans built it. It’s also the only trail that takes visitors into Machu Picchu the way that the Incans visited themselves.

The trail takes about four days to complete and guides are required. Most tour companies bring a huge team of porters, big tents, and fresh veggies and food for elaborate meals. If you’re used to backpacking on your own, eating instant camp meals, prepare to be spoiled.

I’ll be leading a tour group in Peru next April, as well as visiting the Amazon and Rainbow Mountain, and much more! Read more about it here.

3. Wrangell St. Elias, Alaska, USA: Difficult, Varies

If you want raw, rugged, unadulterated nature, then look no further than Alaska. Apart from Denali and the popular cruise route, most of the state is devoid of people and full of adventures. keto hiking food http://www.savvyhiking.com/tips-to-choosing-keto-hiking-food-for-a-multi-day-hike

Wrangell St. Elias is the biggest national park in the US, yet it seems like nobody has ever heard of it! This 8-day trek over glaciers, multiple passes, through tundra, marshes, and moraine isn’t for solo hikers or first-timers, as it requires route finding with a map and compass, and a bush flight in and back out. Yet this is what makes it so wonderful – you’re unlikely to see anyone else out there, though you might spot some bears and moose! You can read more about the trek here.

4. Annapurna Circuit, Nepal: Moderate, Varies between 160–230 km (100-145 mi)

The Annapurna circuit is the slightly less crowded, more picturesque, but equally challenging cousin of Everest Base Camp. It’s a tea house trek, meaning that you can leave the tents, cooking equipment, food, and basically everything but clothing and snacks behind.

More of the trek is becoming accessible by road, and what was once a minimum 14-day trek can be shrunk down depending on your time constraints. Though at 5416 meters (17,769 feet) in altitude, the Thorung La Pass is not to be taken lightly. The highest season is in November with April following in popularity. For an added bonus, tack on the Sanctuary Trek and Poon Hill at the end. For more on how to prepare, click here and here for a day-by-day breakdown. ecotek outdoors hybern8 http://www.savvyhiking.com/top-3-sleeping-pads-for-hiking-great-value-for-your-money

5. Huemul Circuit, Argentina: Difficult (60 km, 37 mi)

The Southern Patagonian Ice Field. This is one of the best views I saw in Patagonia. So amazing

The Huemul Circuit out of El Chalten, Argentinian Patagonia, is one of only four trails in Patagonia that provides a view of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, the third largest frozen body of fresh water in the world.

This hike isn’t easy. You’ll need to carry along all of your gear and provisions for four days, bring along a map with the GPS points routed ahead of time since the trail can be unclear, pull yourself across two rivers with a harness and pulley, and prepare for one of the craziest downhills around. It’s nearly three hours of a steep descent on loose dirt, however the view is unmatched in Patagonia, and that’s saying a lot!

The difficulty is what keeps most visitors away, so if you’re feeling adventurous, read about how to do it here.

6. The O in Torres del Paine, Chile: Moderate (130 km, 80.1 mi) Patagonia’s most loved trek, the circuit in Torres del Paine National Park in Chile, earned its fame for a reason. Picture glacier after glacier, another glimpse of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field for those who do the entire O (rather than the W, which is shorter), and mountain formations that have no equal.

The trail is easy to find, and is moderately difficult. Unless you book prearranged tents and refugios ahead of time, you’ll need to carry all of your own gear for this one. You can read more about how to properly prepare for trekking in Patagonia, known for intense wind and wet, rocky trails here, and how to get the most out of the O in Torres del Paine here.

7. Coyote Gulch, Utah, USA: Moderately Easy (12km, 7.4 mi) Coyote Gulch in Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument can be done over multiple days or, for those willing to rappel down a canyon wall, in just one day.

In comparison to the more popular hikes in Utah like those in Zion, Coyote Gulch has hardly any people at all. You can camp overnight right under the famous Jacob Hamblin Arch, and wander through all day long without seeing more than a few other people along the way. The hike is fairly easy and flat, though it’s mostly through sand and water, so bring along waterproof hiking boots!

This is one of my favorite hikes in the American Southwest. You can read more about how to do it in one day here.

8. Doi Luang Chiang Dao, Thailand: Moderate (12km, 7.4 mi)

Doi Luang Chiang Dao in northern Thailand is the country’s third tallest peak, but it’s easily the most beautiful. The hike is steep in the beginning and the end, and flat in the middle. It takes you through a temperate jungle, full of interesting vines growing through rocks, sakura blossoms depending on time of year, and up to a peak with 360-degree views of undulating mountain after mountain.

I expected this to be a sweaty, buggy affair, but found the hike to be pleasant and even a bit cold. Most people do this hike as an overnight, but it’s possible to do it in one day. You can read more about how to do that here. lattcure outfitters sleeping bag https://www.hikingbay.com/finding-the-best-lightweight-sleeping-bag-for-hiking

9. Kawah Ijen, Java, Indonesia: Easy (8 km, 5 mi)

Kawah Ijen in East Java is in a word, magical. Hiking in with the stars, seeing the amazing blue flames (and trying not to choke from the fumes) and marveling at the local workers who haul sulfur up and down the mountain all day, made this one of my favorite travel experiences to date. It’s a fairly easy morning hike – just make sure to bring a head lamp!

At the time that I did this hike 5 years ago, there was hardly any information about it and there were only a few people who made it to the flames. I understand that the popularity has exploded since (It’s one of my most popular blog posts – sorry!), but I still think it must be an incredible experience. You can’t see blue flames many other places in the world!

10. Cerro Tronador, Argentina: Moderate (36 km, 22 mi)

The Cerro Tronador and Refugio Otto Meiling trek out of Bariloche, Argentinian Patagonia has multiple ‘wow’ factors: The glacier at the top, and this view at the bottom of an area where it cascades over the mountainside.

This hike is best split up into a 2 day, one night hike. The refugio at the top does have some basic sleeping space that one can book ahead of time in town, or it’s possible to bring your own gear and camp at the top. Read more about the hike, and others in the area, here.

11. Edelweissweg, Switzerland: Moderately Easy (varies)

For an incredible panoramic view of the Matterhorn, for those who still want to hike in Zermatt, Switzerland without climbing the actual Matterhorn, the Edelweiss trail is perfect.

From town, take the gondola up to Fury and start from there in the early morning. Some of the trail winds up in switchbacks (and back down of course), but a good portion of it is a panoramic view of the Matterhorn, with plenty of wildflowers to guide your way.

The trail is easy to navigate though it branches off often so bring a map. It’s perfect for a day hike though there are huts along the way if you want to break it up, or make it part of a longer hike. Choose your own adventure. Read more here.

Your barndoor can be lifted high enough to allow you access to your yard and clean up any downed trees that may lie there. Not only that, but even in the meantime when the roads are closed due to weather damage, your little space ship capable of handling a huge amount of weight can get you out there - giving you time to assess the extent of damage and causing it yourself if possible. If you are looking forward to marsh buggy rental, you can get the swamp buggies in Vidor, Texas, from Wetlands Transportation LLC. Call their experts to know more!
