It has mountain ranges, national parks, historical sites, countless museums, beaches, and a plethora of activities both indoors and out to keep any type of traveler entertained. Its timelessness matches the history preserved within its borders, and we’re unpacking all the unique things to see and do across the state. 

Natural Wonders  

The warmer spring weather makes this the perfect time to explore the amazing natural wonders in the South. Breathe in fresh mountain air, hike on lush forest trails, or feel the wind on your face as you take an airboat ride through a swamp. Stay cool in one of the largest cave systems in the world, or tap into your adventurous side by hang gliding over sand dunes. Find your favorite way to get in touch with nature in the South. 

The Most Charming Southern Road Trips 

There’s nothing quite like loading up on your favorite snacks, packing the car down with suitcases, and heading out on a road trip. The landscapes of the south lay claim to the perfect backdrop for a trip like this, with winding roads, small towns brimming with adventure waiting to be discovered, and big cities interspersed rich in both history and personality.
