I am an ardent Nature lover. I want to see waterfalls, forests, nice beaches, and rich culture of the country. Please guide me if you traveled widely.

Since you posted here in the adventure travel forum i suppose you are looking for an adventure? You didnt mention which country or location but let me suggest you take the New Zealand Rimu trip. You should can snorkel with seals in Kaikoura, go hiking in Nelson Lakes National Park, mountain biking on Queen Charlotte Track, OR sea kayaking in Marlborough Sounds, Hike in Punakaiki Rainforest, Kayak Okarito Lagoon, hike beach and forest.. there's so much to do for Rimu. be sure to have more than 10 days spare. _________________ RV hire USA

There's a beach destination in Florida...the Cocoa Beach. I hear the place is an all-in-one nature theme park and beach resort. I think you'll enjoy it there.  _________________ Southwest Vacations Coupons |

Zion in Utah is great and so is a guest ranch in Sonora, close to the Arizona border, which I think is still a hidden jewel not yet discovered, called Tierra Chamahua (Rancho Los Banos). The hosts are great.
The scenery is simply breathtaking; there are dozens of boxed canyons for hiking; kayaking on a lake that is I kid you not, empty of people and is 20 miles long. Jeep tours through crazy wild country.
I could go on but you are better off checking out their website. Google their name. I highly recommend this place. The food was great and so was the service and hospitality.
I have been there twice now for five and six day stays. Of course it is close to me (I am in Phoenix). This is nature at its best; wildlife, stunning scenery, remote, wild.
Prices for low budget travelers are respectable and the owners are always willing to work with you to get you down there. |

OK what about Mojave Desert
Magical & frightening at the same time
Camp out or better still hire a camper van like we did and travel across this vast space
You can pop into Las Vagas on the way if that turns you on
Most good travel companies will arrange an all in one package that includes flights, camper van, and even a route for you to take
Wonderful places to stop off at!! _________________ http://www.hauntingbreaks.co.uk |

Talking for extreme adventure? Well its gonna be in Australia, due to the fact that Australia has one large desert and makes it ideal for rally car racing. I guess this adventure is really different. _________________ My signature file has been deleted, because I'm not being honest about my location, which is a violation of the zero tolerance policy.

Hey as you seems to be from India and seems that you are looking for some other countries. I would say as the things you mention that you needed to travel are all already present in India so why you want to head to some other country. _________________ Lightweight Backpacks |

| Superboo - England is pretty good for nature lovers and hikers. I'd also recommend Germany, France, Italy or Slovenia for outstanding natural beauty. As an English speaker, you might encounter a few language problems in France, Italy or Slovenia, depending on where you are, so if that's a worry, try Germany. There are some gorgeous trails in the south and I've heard tell of tiny microbreweries nestled in the hills, ready to serve any that brave the climb. |

How can you all forget about Chile?
I know I live there but that is the reason I do. I could live anywhere I want but I chose Chile.
Patagonia is adventure with a capital A.
And I can't believe some one just recommended England!!!!! I left there because the horse riders were moaning at the mountain bikers, who were trying to ban the off-roaders, who were fed up with hikers - and the weather is dreadful!
Didn't the person say 'Western hemisphere'? _________________ Santiago Chile Travel
