Let’s take a look out our back door and discover why so many people have been Googling Alabama – yes, Alabama – as a destination for their outdoor adventures.  

Alabama is home to diverse and beautiful ecosystems that create plenty of exploration possibilities from the northern border to the coast. Let’s look at just a few of the options, shall we?  

Starting in the northern part of the state, you’ll find yourself traversing mountains and admiring waterfalls. The northern part of the state is also home to eight of the thirteen lakes that make up the Alabama Bass Trail. Bodies of water twist and wind through state parks, private camping grounds and luxurious lodges.  

Travel deeper into the state and you will find bustling cities such as Birmingham and Montgomery that attract many for their urban entertainment, history and Southern hospitality. They are also surrounded by beautiful lakes just a short drive away. During your adventure, learn about music legends and tune your radio to the classic hits of the South.  

Now head even farther south to the coast. Yes, Alabama has beaches – 32 miles of beaches, to be exact. Dip your toes in the sugar-white sands of the Gulf Coast and, of course, do some fishing while you are there. The MobileTensaw River Delta is home to both saltwater and freshwater fish, making it a dream location for anglers.
