“A VACATION IS having nothing to do and all day to do it in,” said Robert Orben(①背景:Robert Orben(192...), an American comedy writer. Summer holidays have long involved reclining on a far-flung beach. But more tourists are forgoing(放弃,抛弃) sun loungers in search of adrenalin-packed(充满肾上腺素的,刺激的) pursuits, such as canyoning(峡谷探险(运动)) (scrambling down gorges) and abseiling(速降(绳索下降)) (descending rock faces). “Darecations” are a top tourism trend of 2026, according to Pinterest, a social-media firm. Around 14% of international travellers are keen on(热衷于,对…有兴趣) such pursuits, suggests the Adventure Travel Trade Association (ATTA)(①背景:ATTA成立于1990年,总部在...), a trade group.
“假期就是无事可做、有整天的时间去做,”美国喜剧作家罗伯特·奥尔本说。长期以来,暑假往往是在遥远的海滩上躺着度过。但越来越多的游客正在放弃躺椅,转而寻求充满肾上腺素的运动,比如峡谷探险(在峡谷中攀爬)和速降(从岩壁沿绳下降)。据社交媒体公司Pinterest称,“惊险假期”是2026年的一大旅游趋势。冒险旅行贸易协会(ATTA)表示,约14%的国际旅行者对这类活动感兴趣。
Adventure travel involves “wanting to get out of your comfort zone(舒适区(心理安全区域))”, explains Heather Kelly of ATTA(①背景:Heather Kelly是AT...). Sometimes that means trying an extreme activity: SportsCover Direct, an insurance provider, claims that the number of people buying travel insurance for sporting activities nearly tripled(增加了两倍(三倍)) between 2023 and 2025. The fastest-growing endeavours(努力,活动(正式)) include mountaineering(登山运动), rafting(漂流(运动)), hiking(徒步旅行,远足) and running events such as marathons.
ATTA的希瑟·凯利解释说,冒险旅行涉及“想要走出舒适区”。有时这意味着尝试极限活动:保险公司SportsCover Direct声称,2023年至2025年间,购买体育运动旅行保险的人数几乎增加了两倍。增长最快的活动包括登山、漂流、徒步和马拉松等跑步赛事。
Other times darecations come with added comforts. “Soft adventures”, as industry folk call them, are on the rise(在上升,增长中). Such holidays can involve less strenuous(费力的,艰苦的) activities—calm kayaking(皮划艇运动) rather than(而不是,而非) white-water rafting—and luxury accommodation. On Airbnb bookings for nature and outdoor experiences, which include surfing(冲浪运动) and cycling tours, are outpacing(超过,超越(速度)) all other activities.
其他时候,惊险假期还带有额外的舒适感。业内人士所称的“软冒险”正在兴起。这类假期可以包括不太剧烈的活动——平静的皮划艇而非激流漂流——以及豪华住宿。在Airbnb上,自然和户外体验(包括冲浪和骑行之旅)的预订量正超过所有其他活动。
