We're excited for a new year and new adventures that await us. We love the balance of this time of year: cozy time at home and venturing out for a few bundled-up experiences. This is a great time to get out and explore new things near you.

Here are some ideas we have for new adventures you can take with your family.

1 \ Go on a hike - Whether it’s up a mountain, up a hill or in your neighborhood try taking a hike outdoors. Make it as easy or challenging as you want.

2 \ Go on a bike ride – Explore a new trail or path you can find and go for a ride. It’s a fun physical activity the whole family can enjoy.

3 \ Try an outdoor sport – If there is an outdoor sport such as skiing or surfing that you’ve always wanted to try, go for it this year!

4 \ Go fishing – Grab your fishing poles and go to a pond, lake or river. Don’t forget your worms!

5 \ Take a camping trip – The summer is a great time to pack up the family and go camping! Pitch a tent or set up a trailer, create a campfire and roast some marshmallows!

6 \ Go horseback riding – Saddle up and hit the trails on horseback with the family. Find a stable near you that provide guided tours!

7 \ Look for treasures at the beach – If you live by the beach, take a stroll along the shore and find some treasures along the way.

8 \ Have a picnic in a park – Pack up your lunch and blanket and enjoy an afternoon picnic in the park!

9 \ Go to the museum – If you’re not up for an adventure outdoors try going to a local museum and exploring history, art and science.

10 \ Explore your city or town – Take a trip to your downtown area and explore the city sights! Visit a new restaurant, local shop or capital building.

We hope you get the chance to #gowanderwild and experience some new adventures this year!
