Exclusive | Top 5 Outdoors Cities Part Two

When you want the excitement and glamour of the city, as well as the calm and quiet of the great outdoors, make tracks for these five stimulating cities.

Las Vegas
Beyond the neon, the brash bray of the 24-hour strip, and the hordes of buffet-hogging out-of-towners lie some of the world?s most spectacular outdoors adventures options.

What to Pack: Running gear, hiking boots, chalk bag, mountain bike, fishing rod, deck shoes, PFD.

Make Tracks: Within easy reach of wonders such as red Rock Canyon, Lake Mead, Valley of Fire, and Mount Charleston, the colors of the desert far outshine the neon of the strip and downtown Vegas.

Going Clubbing: The all-inclusive Nevada Outdoors has a packed calendar of skiing, lake excursions, climbing and hiking expeditions.

Austin
Over a hundred swimming holes, a gay-adored beach, and impressive climbing crags beckon from the star of Texas.

What to Pack: Running gear, hiking boots, chalk bag, mountain bike, fishing rods.

Make Tracks: Enchanted Rock, about 90 minutes from the city, offers great climbing crags and bouldering areas. Take the dog to Red Bud Isle Trail for a bit of a workout, head to little known Commons Ford Waterfall Trail or Pedernales Falls, join the hot bodies at gay-popular Hippie Hollow on Lake Travis or head to one of the 101 swimming holes in the vicinity.

Going Clubbing: To find out more about outdoors activities in the areas, contact Austin Gay Outdoors Club.
