Hit the Road

Road Tripping through US National Parks

With 63 national parks in the US, you’d need to visit 31 states and two US territories to experience them all. Many travelers visit parks in “clusters,” making it easy to group several parks into a one-to-two-week trip, and check those coveted destinations off your bucket list. While Yosemite boasts breathtaking mountains, waterfalls, and forests, attracting hikers and climbers from all over the world, Death Valley offers a surreal landscape of sand dunes, canyons, and salt flats that contrast with the surrounding mountain ranges — and each park provides a unique chance to connect with nature and the great outdoors. If you’ve thought of visiting multiple parks on the same trip, here are some of our favorite combos for an unforgettable adventure:
