Point Reyes National Seashore
If you want to get in touch with mother nature for a weekend trip, you should plan a trip to California’s Point Reyes National Seashore.
Here you’ll find over 1,500 species of animals and plants that call the region home, along with some unforgettable ocean views crashing against the rocky headlands.
There are elephant seals to observe, salmon spawning season with the winter rains, and about 150 miles of trails that can be explored for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. You can stay with Hostelling International.
Even though they have dorm-style accommodations, they also have four private rooms, or you can camp in the backcountry for your weekend stay.
