The Best US Base Cities to Start an Excursion From

If you enjoy the art of adventure, then finding one place you can bring a multi-tiered adventure from is very fun indeed. Some places in the world are more suited to adventure than others. For that reason, we recommend beginning any future trips or excursions from cities like the following.

Minneapolis

Minneapolis has become a wonderful place to take an adventure around the midwestern part of the United States. Starting here means that you can enjoy some great outdoor trips in the city itself, and an easy commute to other major and minor cities both within the state and beyond.

You will find that most Midwest cities like this are easily located to some great outdoor trails and adventures, too. Other great Midwest cities for touring and adventuring include Chicago and Detroit.

Portland

Easily accessible, Portland is one of the most laid-back cities in the entirety of America. It is also close enough to other quality cities like Portland and San Francisco that you can easily travel to and from here to other major cities.

Portland is also home to some amazing outdoor venues, and the city itself is pretty green and open-minded. You should find that starting your journey from Portland makes a lot of sense, though you could easily also head to other cities or head out into the open world from this particular starting point.

Denver

Denver is a wonderful place to spend your time, and it makes a wonderful place to head away from if you want to enjoy something different. The rocky nature of this part of the US is unique, and you can also easily reach other hiking-friendly cities and areas like

Boulder & Aspen

If you are someone who wants to spend time in a clean and enjoyable city with easy access to the outdoors, then any of the three cities above make great places to start.
