Hiking in the Grand Canyon state doesn’t just mean hiking in the Grand Canyon. Obviously stopping by the world’s greatest chasm is an obligatory pilgrimage for anyone inclined towards jaw-dropping natural phenomena, but the hiking doesn’t stop there.

Take a luxury Mercedes Campervan on a romantic getaway through Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. Trust us to show you the favorites of each park while also bringing you to the lesser-known and better-kept secrets, allowing you to truly escape into the serenity of the wild west.

Yellowstone Lower Loop:
After picking up your van in Jackson, you will wind your way up past the Tetons and up into Yellowstone National Park. You will spend three nights in Yellowstone, the first national park in the world, amid its awe-inspiring ecosystem, wildlife, and incredible hydrothermal features. Visit the Upper Geyser Basin, the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, Lake Yellowstone, and West Thumb Geyser Basin on the Yellowstone Lower Loop. Enjoy days full of hiking, wildlife spotting, gushing geysers, and incredible canyon vistas.

Grand Tetons:
Spend the next two nights in the stunning Grand Tetons. Though Yellowstone may have been the first national park, the Tetons are every local’s favorite. Canoe or Kayak on the incredible Jackson Lake, hike up Cascade Canyon between Teewinot and Mount Saint John, ferry across Jenny Lake’s pristine glacially-fed waters, spot wildlife along Moose-Wilson Road, and take a polar plunge into Phelps Lake from the Jumping Rock.

Remote Hot Springs:
For your final night in the van you will leave the hustle and bustle of the National Parks and head south of Jackson to a dispersed/remote camping location. Enjoy your last night camping along a peaceful Creek and awe-inspiring views of the Gros Ventre Mountains. Then top it all off with a trip to the hot spring just up the road for an after-dinner soak. Count the stars as you take in the serenity of the West!

We're now accepting bookings for 20223! Please visit the link in our bio to take a closer look at this pre-planned itinerary.

😴 Dreaming about the ulti-mutt summer road trip with your pup? The 🐾 paw-sabilities are endless in Maine’s Acadia National Park, which consistently ranks amongst the most dog friendly parks in the country! If you or your pet like long walks in the woods (or on the beach), daily dips 🏊‍♂️ in glacially carved lakes, and a cozy campervan to call home 🚐 look no fur-ther!

Located just three hours north of our Portland Maine Hub, Acadia boasts over 100 miles of well maintained hiking trails, all of which welcome (leashed) four legged friends 🐕 The park is also home to some 50 miles of scenic Carriage Roads; these manicured, gravel paths are closed to motorized vehicles, allowing dog owners to stroll without the stressors of conventional traffic 🎄

How will you decide to spend each day? We are here to help! Our itinerary team is offering a FREE one-hour consult for the first five people to send us a message mentioning this post; from memorable hikes to can’t-miss campgrounds, we’ll make recommendations based on your interests and abilities to help you maximize your time in coastal Maine! 🍁

Every few years, above-average rainfall in California will trigger a natural phenomenon known as a ‘super bloom.’ This particular phenomenon can’t be described as anything less than an explosion of color from hundreds of thousands of wildflowers blooming simultaneously. Most recently, a super bloom occurred in 2019, drawing visitors from all over the globe! 🌻 Ever pictured yourself waking up surrounded by an infinite field of flowers? Well, now is your chance!

Check out the blog post linked in our bio for our top suggestions on where to experience this incredible natural beauty!

Happy Friday! Did you know that Diesel fuel is also more energy-dense than gasoline? Most renters find they can go over 400 miles on a single fill. With that kind of mileage, we’re always ready for the road less traveled.  -  -  -  #moterra #gomoterra #happieroutdoors #vanlife #campervanconversion #mercedessprinter #vanvibes #travel #fueleconomy #travelutah #travelcalifornia

Planning on going camping in the desert? Here are three tips for a successful trip in your campervan 🚐

1.)☀️ Wake up at first light, and never miss a sunset:
The sun is strongest in mid-day, so the mornings and evenings are the prime time for watching the sun dance across the painted sandstone. Afternoons will provide a perfect opportunity to park by the river and sneak in an afternoon siesta 🧉
The desert can be hot and dry, so preventing dehydration is crucial. Adding electrolytes will help keep your desert adventure fueled! We love @liquidIV

2.)📍 Plan your route and campsites ahead of time:
Planning your route and campsites ahead of time can help ensure a smooth and enjoyable trip. Research the different campsites available in the area and consider factors such as distance from attractions, amenities, and terrain type. It's also a good idea to plan out your route and have a backup plan in case of any detours or road closures.

3.)🐿️ Respect the wildlife and leave no trace:
The desert is home to a variety of wildlife, and it's important to respect their habitat and not disturb them. Follow the "leave no trace" principles, dispose of trash properly, and be mindful of your impact on the environment.

✅ Adhering to these guidelines will help you and your travel buddies have a memorable and safe camping adventure!
