Warm weather and less crowds - what’s not to love about an end to summer trip. Here are some of our favorite late summer destinations from relaxing in wine country to hiking in a national park or exploring the city. 


Napa Valley is the perfect destination for a girls weekend or couple’s trip. With hundreds of wineries and restaurants, your getaway will be filled with new places to try. The views in Napa are breathtaking from the mountains to the flourishing vineyards.

If you’re looking for some heat before fall, Palm Springs is the place. Spend the cooler mornings hiking in the mountains with breathtaking views. After that, relax and soak up some sun by the pool and the palm trees. Stroll around downtown and enjoy the iconic Palm Springs vibe from the eclectic houses to the architecture around the city.

 

If you’re in need of some time on the trails, head to Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado for beautiful mountain views and lush greenery. Just a couple hours from Denver International Airport, Rocky Mountain National Park is the perfect destination to cool off, unplug, and explore.
