Getting a Class B motorhome can make it easy to travel and explore the region and nation. They’re compact, easy to use, simple to care for, and still comfortable to travel in. Once you have your Class B motorhome, you’ll want to start planning out some great trips. Golden Gait Trailers & RVs have provided some ideas for your next or first trip. If you’d like to swap advice with some of our staff, stop by our location in Concord, North Carolina, serving Charlotte and Raleigh.

Head to a Festival

All across the country at all times of the year, you’ll find festivals taking place. Whether it’s music festivals, food and drink events, state fairs, and even hobby-related rallies, you might find something you’re enthusiastic about at a festival, near or far. The benefit of taking your Class B motorhome is that you’ll get to enjoy the event for a whole weekend or longer, instead of just the afternoon.

Follow a Concert Tour

If your favorite band is going on tour, you can follow their performances! Explore new cities during the day and check out the shows at night. Each performance can be a little bit different, so you won’t get bored. 

Embark on a Creative Retreat

When you’re away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, you might find new creative outlets you’re enthusiastic about. This can include photography, writing, yoga, painting, or anything else that helps you get away from the high-stress, fast-paced lifestyle of the day-to-day.

Host a Tailgating Party

Football season is gearing up, and even though you don’t have a lot of extra space in your Class B motorhome, it can still be fun to host a tailgating party. Keep your guests outside and you can still have access to a kitchen, bathroom, and other essential party amenities. 

Go Antiquing

A fun, low-stress activity to help you occupy the day is to check out local antique shops. Searching for treasures and seeing what previous generations left behind is always an exciting and fun experience. You can even find antiquing trails, which provide travel routes to some of the most popular antique stores in the region or state.

Embrace the Outdoors

Of course, the biggest reason for camping is to enjoy the great outdoors. Go to one of your favorite parks, or explore a new one, and simply enjoy being outside. Lounge in a hammock or a lawn chair, reading your favorite book or taking a nap. Let Mother Nature help you relax.

Hiking

If you’re going for outdoor entertainment, you can always fall back on the classic hiking adventure. Look for easy routes to help you stretch your legs, or challenge yourself to really get the body moving.

Go Kayaking

You can hit the water if you enjoy kayaking. Most Class B motorhomes can easily fit one or two kayaks, so find some smooth waterways or intense rapids to pass the morning or afternoon.

Go on a Fishing Trip

If kayaking is a bit much for you, then bring a different kind of boat and go fishing. Or simply cast your line from the shore. The benefit here is that, not only is it a fun recreational activity, but it can also mean lunch for you and your camping party. 

Geocaching

Geocaching is like outdoor treasure hunting. Get a GPS, or simply use your phone, and find a geocache or two in the area you’ll be staying. It can be a fun way to pass the time and an exciting challenge, especially for the campers who enjoy puzzles. 

These are just a handful of ideas, but at the end of the day, it’s your trip! Find something that you and your camping party will love so you can create a memorable experience for everyone.
