Yosemite National Park is a fitness resort with unlimited use for people of all age groups. We are ramblers and often find the States poor for trails but the High Sierra Hiking Guide edition for Yosemite offered us some great walks and hints for comfort. White water rafting outside of the park on the river Merced was great as we stopped to swim and dive off rocks (not certain this would fit EU rules)! Many rock climbers could be seen climbing anything and everything up to El Capitan some 3,593 ft up. Accommodation and food in the park is basic (plan ahead). Why look for a gym when the whole park is a sports ground on offer 24 hrs a day 365 days a year.

I had no idea you can rock climb in halong bay until I was recommended it by my travel agent. Its amazing, better than Krabi and so much fun. Its beautiful, you can sleep in basic accommodation on an island, away from the crowds. They are super professional and great fun to learn with.

Sand, rocks and trees - what more could you need? The forest of Fontainbleau provides low rock climbing for adults and children, sand for babies and toddlers, shade and sun for all, and a peaceful environ. In autumn an excellent spot for mushroom picking.

Fly to Paris Charles de Gaulle airport and hire a car. The town of Fontainbleau is south of Paris, allowing day trips to Paris on rainy days.
