Congratulations, Nature Enthusiast!

Your perfect solo trip destination is a National Park, offering a digital detox and a serene retreat into nature.

This getaway provides an opportunity to unwind, recharge, and embrace the peace and quiet of the great outdoors. Activities include tranquil hikes, reading in bed, and taking a hot bath after a day of exploring.

I’d recommend looking at Airbnbs within 20 minutes of the park entrance. You could also look into lodging inside the park itself, but from my experience, it’s usually a little pricey and not as cute as options outside the park.

Stock up on food at the grocery store and spend your trip cooking meals for yourself. (Don’t forget the snacks).

With this type of trip, you’re able to disconnect from your busy life, commune with nature, improve your mood, and reconnect with what makes you feel alive.

Here are some favorite parks I’ve been to in the US:

Mt. Rainier National Park in Washington

Yellowstone in Wyoming/Montana

Acadia in Maine

Sequoia & Kings Canyon in California

How to spend your time:

✔️ Hiking or walking

✔️ Scenic Drives: Take leisurely drives through the park for breathtaking views.

✔️ Stargazing: enjoy the night sky away from city lights

✔️ Pack a lunch and have a picnic

✔️ Reflective activities like reading or journaling

✔️ Sketch or paint the landscape, or paint by numbers

✔️ Meditate or do yoga

✔️ Taking yourself out for a nice meal in a nearby town
