The quietest nature place I've experienced is the Sonoran Desert in mid summer mid afternoon.

With the temperature approaching 120F nothing stirs (wildlife and insects are all hiding from the sun waiting for it to cool a bit). If you are out far away from the city and no plane is overhead it is dead dead silent. A weird silent.




Same in Death Valley in August. No plane/car noises, no animal noises, no wind noises. Bliss.
