The 2025 work year is off to a great start, as April is treating us just right with two back-to-back long weekends. Of course, this calls for quick escapes! Time to claim your golden opportunity to refresh from the routine with planned weekend getaways. 

The Baisakhi weekend (12th to 14th April) and Easter weekend (18th to 20th April) are perfect to explore some of the best holiday destinations in April.

Two Long Weekends and Summer Vacations – Best Time for a Trip 

It’s pretty seldom that you get two long weekends consecutively. It’s double the fun, and it shouldn’t go to waste. Enjoy the festivities of the weekend with your loved ones and make new memories.

With summer vacations around the corner, it’s a great chance to take your children on a trip, too. There can’t be a better chance. Be it a weekend getaway with family or a quiet weekend away for couples, Sterling Holidays is here to help you plan. From spending the weekend amidst forests, at the beach, or through the mountains, there are endless rejuvenating options to choose from. With comfortable stays and incredible restaurants, Sterling ensures that every vacation is an unforgettable one.

Jungles, Mountains, or Beaches – Pick Your Vibe, Whether Up North or Down South

  • Escapes Amidst the Forests

April is a great time to take weekend trips in the wild. This is when springtime enhances the lush flora, and the mild heat starts inviting the fauna closer to water bodies. 

It is common to sight tigers around this time as they come out of the dense forests to cool down in the open. Hence, a lot of tiger reserves also conduct their tiger safaris until mid-April. 

If you are around Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, or Rajasthan, you can plan a weekend touring:

  • Ranthambore National Park 
  • Sariska Tiger Reserve
  • Kanha National Park
  • Pench National Park
  • Gir Wildlife Sanctuary
  • Tipeshwar Wildlife Sanctuary

These destinations are perfect for nature and wildlife photographers, curious kids, and adventure seekers. If you think about it, a romantic wildlife safari can be a unique romantic choice for a weekend away for couples, too. 

Lucky for you, Sterling has just the stays required to have the best weekend getaways in the wild. You can pick from Sterling Padam Pench, Sterling Gir, Sterling Bagh Ranthambore, Sterling Kanha, and more.

  • Take a Breather in the Mountains

There is no doubt that hill stations are the most common choice for summer vacations. So, a Sterling hill station stay can complement the best holiday destinations in April. The myriad hill stations all around the country make them a very accessible choice for quick weekend trips.

  • Stick with the Sand and the Sea

What better than a beach vacation in the summer, right? With the temperature just beginning to rise, you might want to soak your feet in some salty water and take a dip in the sea. Beaches also extend a mood to party by the sea, enjoy seafood, and simply soak up the sun for an Instagram-worthy vacation.
