Top 5 best places for spring hiking in the USA
Hiking is one of the best ways to admire the delights of nature. If you're a spring mountain hiker, you'll likely want to avoid the high, rocky terrain of the Sierra Nevada or North Cascades, where snow falls even in June. For spring hiking, it is best to choose the South or Southwest of the United States. We offer you a list of five places with an ideal climate for spring hiking, compiled by the publication Travel Arp.
Big Bend Rani Park, Texas
In the largest park in Texas, it is easy to find places far from the beaten track. And this is not surprising, because the area of this park is more than 250 thousand acres. An extensive system of trails provides an excellent opportunity to explore the incredibly beautiful landscapes of West Texas. A small section of the Rio Grande also passes through the park, which makes this place comfortable for rafting.
The best tracks: stop your choice on a track that stretches for about 25 miles along Rio Grande and in the Chihuahua desert.
2. Mojave National Preserve, California
This place represents the 1,6 million acres of desert park in sand dunes with restored ancient settlements and natural historical artifacts, as well as a wide range of hiking spots. In spring, the temperature here ranges from 60 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit (15-27 degrees Celsius) depending on the height.
The best tracks: enjoy the secluded desert from the track on the Teutonic peak, then go down the “steps” to the Banshei canyon with its alien species.
3. Snow Canyon, Utah
Snow Canyon is the most beautiful park in Utah, even considering that in this state four more parks compete with it. The diverse landscape of this canyon really distinguishes it from the rest: the high cliffs of the Red and White Mountains, towering over the seas of green flora, dotted with black lava stones and intersecting with sandy beams. If, after hiking, you need a massage to soothe the muscles, then the Red Mountain Resort is famous for the spa center next to the park.
The best tracks: go from the White Rock route to the “Lava Flow”, and the best views of the Snow Canyon will open in front of you.
4. Recreation Area in Sabino Canyon, Arizona
Sabino Canyon has all the ingredients for great spring hiking: desert scenery, warm weather, and a lift that takes you to the top—all you have to do is climb down.
Best tracks: climb the Bear Canyon route to the Seven Waterfalls.
5. Everglades National Park, Florida
Early spring is the most pleasant time of the year to go to the Everglades with its subtropical wild landscapes. Thanks to its unique ecosystem, it is home to very different species of animals: from alligators to manatees. Despite the fact that this place is actively used by canoeists, the park also has many hiking trails.
Best Trails: Try the Snake Cove Trail—1,6 miles one way—a thrilling walk through subtropical forest along the water's edge.
