Winter has come to an end and many people are starting to make travel plans, but what if you tried something different and became a tourist in your own town? Think about it: when visiting a new area, we try and see as much of the town as possible. We look for fun and exciting things to do, we stay in hotels, and we try new restaurants. It becomes a completely immersive experience because we get out of our normal routine. On the other hand, when you live where you vacation, it can be easy to feel like you’ve “seen it all” and avoid getting the same experience.
In order to help persuade you and help you save some cash, (have you seen the gas prices?) we’ve put together a list of some activities, restaurants, and places to stay to help you create the perfect hometown itinerary in Siskiyou.
