My favourite Rural Areas,
That I’ve Visited
-
#1 Mount Sima and Kwanlin Dun First Nation
Yukon, Canada
Just outside Whitehorse is the most picturesque wilderness I've ever seen! If you can brave the cold, and I mean real cold! it got down to -25c when I was there, it's worth it.
-
#2 Rocky mountains
Colorado, USA
Nestled around an old gold rush town, Durango, are some of the best mountains and ravines I’ve ever been to. A great way to see it is on the Durango steam railway which has one of the last coal fired steam engines in the USA!

#3 Parc Naturel Regional De Medoc
France
Wine anyone? If you like Old world red wine, sun-kissed vineyards, and beautiful chateaus then this is the place for you!
-
#4 Esslingen
Germany
On the outskirts of Esslingen there is stunning hilly Germanic countryside with vineyards, forts and pretty little German outbuildings. Need I say more?
-
#5 Dartmoor National Park
England
Devon countryside taken to the max! Dartmoor has beautiful views, animals and the right to roam.
-
#6 Le Lavandou
France
The french riviera but not the big tourist spots! Le Lavandou is cupped on the southern French coast by lovely mountains and great driving roads. You can relax on the beach or storm up a mountain pass stopping to admire the jaw dropping views as you go.
