Minas Gerais is larger than mainland France and Switzerland combined, yet most people outside Brazil have never heard of it. Mining has dominated the state since the first gold rush in the late 17th century, and tourism is now one of the few economic alternatives that gives its mountains a future. At Santuário do Caraça, a 40-square-mile private reserve, a guide and biologist leads hikes up to Pico da Canjerana, where carnivorous plants, hummingbirds, morpho butterflies, and rare birds like the rock tapaculo share the slopes. Come evening, maned wolves arrive at the chapel door to be fed, one of the finest wildlife encounters you can have. Farther along, Ouro Preto’s baroque churches are caked in gold, the arts center and botanic garden at Inhotim make an easy cultural stop, and a visit to a quilombo, a village founded by people who escaped slavery, adds a deeper look at Afro-Brazilian culture. Build a week around a guided trek at Caraça, then add Ouro Preto and Inhotim on the way out.

Flying into Frankfurt, the largest city in Hesse, sets up an easy road trip through three towns that each do Christmas differently. Start in Seligenstadt, a medieval town about 45 minutes away with half-timbered houses and an abbey that bakes excellent bread, then continue to Fulda, where the market has a gourmet section, a medieval village, a children’s area, and a winter forest. Fulda also gives small local vendors a stall for a week or two, so you find handmade goods you rarely see at a Christmas market. Marburg’s small Dagobertshäuser market pairs apple cider donuts and churros with a Brothers Grimm trail through the old town. Kassel finishes the loop with a market built around a different Grimm tale each season, plus a UNESCO-listed palace park and a museum devoted to the Grimms. Collect each market’s own Glühwein mug as you go and plan an evening at every stop.
