Contrary to popular belief, Black folks are into outdoor adventures. Black folks are not all about day parties, brunch, and BBQs. While all those activities are worth their weight in Black gold, Black people are not a monolith.
Are you feeling adventurous? Are you in the mood for excitement and outdoor experiences?
Whether you are in a city, rural area, or suburban location, there are plenty of outdoorsy escapades for you. Here are six to enjoy.
1.) Helicopter Ride
If you’re in the Los Angeles area, a helicopter ride might be the adrenaline rush you are looking for. Celebrity Helicopters Tour is a Black-owned company that offers a great adventure for groups of friends looking to soar above the Hollywood Hills. During this adventure in the friendly skies, you can expect a bird’s-eye view of many historical and high-end landmarks around L.A.
2.) All About Dat Tours
3.) Cloudland Canyon State Park Waterfalls
4.) Grand Canyon
If camping and hiking are your thing, then must experience both in the mother of all canyons. The Grand Canyon is a difficult hiking trip that can last four days, but you get to enjoy the dramatic and unforgettable views, the plant life and the wildlife, and, most of all, being one with nature.
5.) Row Your Boat
If in the Midwest, try a great adventure on the water in Chicago. Add excitement to your visit by kayaking through the city’s river. You can explore the city on your own terms, paddle-style, while experiencing Chicago’s skyscrapers and historic landmarks from a different perspective.
6.) Hot Air Balloon
