Spanning across numerous cities, Texas Hill County is located on the Edwards Plateau, this region is covered in hills, plains, and breathtaking valleys.

7. Boise, Idaho
I know what you're thinking. Idaho? For a vacation? I thought the same thing until I did some research. For starters, It is ranked one of the top places to live in the U.S. (that's got to mean something, right?) This is the spot for a relatively cheap vacation. It is also minutes away from hiking and biking trails. Check out their website for more info.
