These are some really amazing, high falls which are located in the Yoho National park (right along side between Banff and Jasper). The falls are huge, you will see them from a distance even from the parking area which is probably a good spot to start taking some pictures – you wont be able, when closer to fit it to the frame.

When in Israel you will see a lot of the sea – that is for sure, but there are some real gems hiding along the smaller roads. One of these roads is the road leading from north of Netanya to road #2 going through some small villages and right on the water.
Directions: When you are in North Netanya, continue into Avichail (its a small town next to Netanya) keep on driving west till you get to a stop sign, take a right follow the road (you will see the blue bay hotel on your left) right after you pass the hotel you will see the sea right there to your left – some really nice views, if you want, park your car and go down to the beach – usually these are pretty empty.

Just an hour drive from Atlanta is Tallulah gorge and waterfalls. The gorge and the falls are really nice, there are several viewpoints along the way which offers some great views, these are located near the visitor’s center and from there you can also take the stairs down to see the falls from a closer look. During some weekends a year the dam is wide open and then its probably even more beautiful since the water are more powerful.

This is an amazing lake and it is really worth some of the disadvantages of this boat ride (for example the boat ride is not cheap, the explanations on board are in German only and they collect tips during the ride which is a bit annoying I must say) – but the great view you see is worth it. This is a crystal blue lake with some cliffs and mountains around it. At the end of the tour you get to an island on which you can walk around and get into the small church.

This is truly one of the most amazing ways to experience the falls from close. this a boat tour take you as close as possible to the falls – you will get wet for sure but they give you a coat. It is really touristic and can be crowded sometimes but still it is a really nice way to observe the falls.

Stone mountain is right there in Atlanta and it is truly a great place for an afternoon visit. when there you should take the tram to the top of stone mountain (which costs about 8USD) the top offers some great views and the mountain surface is really unique.

Bryce canyon is one of my favorite national parks, only because it is so unique, it is like nothing you ever seen.
The park located in the south-west of Utah, not too far away from Las Vegas. When arriving to the park you should leave your car at the parking area and use the public shuttle which drive through all the attractions of the park, try to get off on the main view point and choose some hikes to explore this amazing park.

Mount Edith Cavell is located at Jasper National Park, you have to follow Highway 93A south and turn off at the Cavell Road (which is kind of a bumpy road but it is worth it). Once there you can see some really amazing glaciers on the mountain side, there is also a small pond full of little bergi bites and a great view of mountain sides and snow around it.
From the parking you have to walk a trail for about 30 minutes, While walking take a look to the right and Uyou will see angel glacier, keep going and then you will get to the pond.

I visited this park twice, one time was during June and another time was during September, defiantly June is better, there are still many snow and ice remains and while driving towards higher grounds (like going to the sun route) you see all those giant ice walls around you which creates some ice caves along the road and the views are great.

This is a well known lake so there are always many tourists there, but this is not harming the peaceful atmosphere of this lake and the small town around it. The lake itself is a small round lake, you should defiantly walk around it to view it from all angels (there are some great views when you see the little island in the middle of the lake with all the mountains around it). There is also the Bled castle you can visit which is located just above the lake, and the island itself.
