3 Weekend Excursions That Are Thrilling And Refreshing

Life is life and that means dealing with the daily grind and work and taking a long vacation just isn't in the cards

. Looks like another weekend of housework, yardwork and hanging out with the same old people at the same old places. However, you could plan a quick weekend excursion to recharge your batteries and clear your mind and spirit. Don't think you be refreshed and renewed in a mere two days? You'll be able to if you find some great day trips to go on.

The American Council of Exercise reports that challenging physical activities - those that engage the mind as well as the body - can improve brain function, release stress and keep you motivated. So the next time you need to get away but don't think weekend excursions are worth the trouble, think about participating in one of these adventures instead:

River Rafting -

River rafting is an adventure the whole family can enjoy. No previous experience needed! There are rafting excursions for people of almost any age and fitness level - even non-swimmers are welcome. If you are in top condition and looking for some extreme thrills don't worry; with a knowledgeable guide, first-time rafters are welcome on up to Class IV (difficult) runs. Whether you spend it on the easiest stretch of river or one foaming with white water, a weekend of river rafting is guaranteed to turbo-charge your brain.

Rock Climbing -

Yes, rock climbing can be dangerous and a certain level of physical fitness is required, but even the most experienced rock climber was once a beginner. With the growing popularity of this extreme sport plenty of climbing companies are available to provide thrill seekers and newcomers with a safe and fun rock climbing experience. You won't be ready to climb Devil's Tower after one weekend, but you will learn the basics of the sport, enjoy some amazing views and relieve your body of harmful stress.

Hiking -

You can go hiking regardless of your experience level since you don't have to have any special equipment except for a good pair of shoes or boots. No excuses not to treat yourself to a weekend excursion that will leave you feeling renewed. What's more serene than a walk in nature? Of course, thrill seekers can amp up the difficulty level and hike up a mountain with a loaded pack, but there's also the thrill of glimpsing a hawk in flight or viewing a field on fire with blooming wild flowers.

Regardless of whatever level of physical challenge you're ready for, day trips are a great way to get your mind and body working together in a complete fitness and health program. As with all things, be a wise consumer and research the reputation of any adventure company before booking weekend excursions with them. Getting the most out of living means getting as much enjoyment as you can out of your weekends.
