Van Road Trips in the Pacific Northwest: Part 1
Spring in the Pacific Northwest is a magical time. As the winter chill starts to fade, the whole region bursts to life with blooming wildflowers, lush greenery, and cascading waterfalls. It's the perfect season to pack up and go on some van road trips to soak up the beauty of the natural areas, the chance for a recharge and relaxation away from the grind, and the unique opportunities for fun in the small towns along the way. Here are some of the best places in the Pacific Northwest to visit this spring:
First Time Van Life Tips
For many of our customers, we’ve found that they are not only new to van life, but also new to camping and RVing. This creates an awesome opportunity! Get ready to learn about everything from the systems in a van/RV to what to cook. And how to pack for a successful trip.
Brews, Bikes and Boondocking in Bend, Oregon
If you love the outdoors, good food and local beer, Bend is your road trip destination! With ample camping just outside of town right on the trail system, you can enjoy boondocking and nightlife all in one trip. Plus the high desert climate allows for outdoor recreation year round. Whether it be skiing, mountain biking, water sports, hiking or exploring the area's unique geology.
Galena Lodge for the Whole Family
One of our family’s favorite spots to camp and adventure is Galena Lodge, nestled in the beautiful and rugged Sawtooth mountains of southwest Idaho. Galena Lodge sits near the top of Galena Pass, between Sun Valley and Stanley, Idaho.
Van Life Adventures: Central Oregon Coast
When the hotter temps hit us in Boise, we hit the road! Cooler temps and sunny weather on the Oregon coast this time of year make for the perfect van get away. We have found the Central Oregon coast to be quieter than areas like Lincoln City, Newport or Cannon Beach.
