Have you ever been slumped in your armchair watching survival series’ presented by the likes of Ray Mears and Bear Grylls, silently hoping that one day, you could have a bash at surviving in the woods on nuts and berries while all the while begrudgingly agreeing to accompany the wife or girlfriend on another week-long break to Majorca? You might have even been camping in a forest with your mates in the hope of recreating a Mears like situation, building your own shelter and attempting to capture a rabbit for dinner, all this is pretty pointless when you can practically hear the steaks cooking in the local Hungry Horse down the road.
Rather than going down to your local forest with your luxury tent and disposable barbeque, what you need is a truly fulfilling adventure experience. Canada is the perfect place to do just that, With thousands of square miles of untapped, unspoiled forests, mountains and national parks, Canada offers the ultimate canvas for the intrepid explorer to get themselves lost in the breath taking landscapes. The problem with the UK is just that it is simply not big enough to feel truly isolated, the rural dwelling population is high meaning you are always likely to come across another rambler, or a country pub!
Type in Canada holidays to your browser and you will find hundreds of adventure packages, organized enough to give you a good idea of where to start, but also remaining flexible meaning you can wonder off into the wilderness and do your own thing, if that’s your bag! Canada hosts some great city breaks like Toronto Holidays, but if you want to deviate from the beaten track and leave the hustle and bustle behind, an adventure holiday could be perfect for you. Imagine you and few friends exploring dense pine forrstes, kayaking down beautifully clear freshwater rivers and lakes, and traversing the Rockies by rail. This would be a holiday with a difference, and certainly one you’d never forget!
