by Liz Lewis on August 26th, 2008

Concierge.com, Conde Nast Traveler’s online, interactive website has a list of ‘12 easy trips that will feed your soul without burning fuel’

Cruising Around Santa Catalina Island - pretty much everyone gets around this 48,000-acre island, which is protected by strict environmental regulations, by golf cart, foot, and kayak.

Biking around Las Vegas’s Red Rock Canyon, a stunning desert playground just 17 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip.

Diving Chicago’s waters for shipwrecks.

Railing to West Virginia’s Greenbrier Resort , where, in days gone by, politicos and high society types went for mineral waters of White Sulphur Springs.

Rafting along the Colorado River in an inflatable rubber raft.

Hiking the Blue Hills outside Boston.

Leave Dallas behind for a Cowboy Junket.

Skip New York City for Art and Antiques in the Hudson Valley.

Get on your bike to tour Oregon’s Wine Country.

Float along the Chattahoochee River via inner tube or canoe.

Spend a car-free weekend in Berkeley.

Sail out of Seattle to the San Juan Islands on a 65 ft schooner.
