The North American continent is full of beautiful landscapes and picturesque locations to enjoy. One such location is the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve in Colorado.

One look at the vast sand-filled landscape and you will be flabbergasted by how amazing the sight is with these sand dunes the size of mountains hundreds of miles from any sea.

What makes the view even more incredible is the great mountain range in the background that makes this place one of the most-visited areas in the state.

Simply staring at the dunes could be a top-rated item on your list of things to do here!

But of course, there is more to do in the Sand Dunes than just staring at it. Hiking around the dunes allows you see a surprising variety of animal life, plus other landscape such as grasslands, wetlands, forests, alpine lakes and tundra.

The park is also a great place to go camping, although know that during the summer months, sand temperatures can be extreme so the best time to visit the place is during the spring or autumn seasons.

The weather might be over the top during summer and winter. A bit challenging? Yes! But nothing can beat the memories and enjoyment in the face of your loved ones visiting this place!

Today, you can surf an ocean of sandy slopes, observe the glow of planets and hear the sand sing.
