Amazing Destinations for Outdoor Adventure Loving Healthcare Travelers

One of the many perks of being a healthcare traveler is the exciting destinations you get to experience. If you’re an outdoor adventure lover, be sure to put these on your list of places to explore.

Colorado Rockies

Whether you work as a travel therapist or on another type of travel job in the city of Denver, or a town high up in the Rockies, you’ll have easy access to outdoor adventures galore. There’s the state’s famous world-class skiing, snowboarding and other winter sports during the chillier months of the year, which are often enjoyed under bright blue skies, with the dry climate and the high elevation making it feel warmer than what that temperature reads. And, from about mid-spring to mid-fall, you can take part in whitewater rafting, hike the miles and miles of trails in Rocky Mountain National Park and countless other scenic areas while watching for wildlife like elk, moose and mountain goats, mountain biking, fly fishing and more.

Portland, Oregon

Portland is famous for its outdoor-loving travel therapists and allied travelers who like to bike to work and enjoy hiking right in the city. Choose a travel job here and you’ll have access to Forest Park, the largest urban forest in the nation located in a city, and is made up of over 5,000 acres of dense trees, streams and waterfalls. It also boasts more than 40 miles of biking and hiking trails. Just an hour and a half’s drive will bring you to the Oregon coast for more scenic hikes and bike rides as well as the opportunity to surf, windsurf or kitesurf.

San Francisco, California

One of the world’s most beautiful cities makes it easy to stay fit and have fun with a myriad of opportunities for recreational activities. Not only will walking those hills get those muscles working while you soak up the magnificent scenery, but you can look forward to peaceful strolls in Golden Gate Park, kayaking out on the bay and even biking across the Golden Gate Bridge over to the beautiful town of Sausalito. Just minutes north of the city is a gorgeous ancient grove of old growth Coastal Redwoods and a number of trails the wind through the famous Sequoias. Of course, there are plenty of beaches nearby too, for flying a kite, enjoying walks along the crashing waves of the Pacific and watching for whales.
