Hiking info

Thanks for the guest post by Esteban Vinson

My friends and I love to hike as often as we can get away. We mostly stay in Georgia, but occasionally we will get a longer span of time and go exploring in another state. I am usually the event planner, coordinating the travel plans, sight-seeing, and lodging for the trip. While I have some research for the best locations though several sources, I also enjoy watching the travel stations on Direct TV. These shows offer advice on not only where to go , but the best time to go places to stay and local attractions and restaurants. The national park websites are also full of travel information. These website have hiking maps and sometimes a brief description of the hikes. It is always good to know if the hike is easy, moderate or strenuous as well as the altitude increase. Several hiking websites help determine where to go and which hike are best suited for the group as well. We have been very fortunate to find clean, safe , comfortable lodging at a price we can afford and plan to continue hiking as long as we are able.
