In three years, 50 national parks I have visited in the United States



 

National Parks

Summarize the 50 national parks I've been to


I happened to be there before I knew it

Fifty national parks

I didn't deliberately brush it

It's just not easy to leave the country

And the city has been there again

Plus like road trips

So I brushed fifty


Look at the natural scenery

Breathe fresh air

Always can't go wrong


A total of XNUMX photos were selected

Arranged in order of check-in time

The beauty of the national park

Approximately presented with the number of photos

Moderately linear relationship

Then I will give a score

★It is worth checking in

★★It is worth a detour to check in

★★★It is worth making a special trip to punch in


Everglades National Park

Everglades National Park

As the name suggests, it's a piece of Everglades

It's not far from Miami so it's relatively convenient

Inside are iconic flamingos and crocodiles

Then there is the marsh ecosystem


Overall it's a pretty good place

Recommendation index: ★★


Death Valley National Park

Death Valley National Park

Death Valley is the hottest place in summer

So choose a relatively cool season to go

Otherwise, you can fry the eggs directly on the hood


Is a very desolate valley with a large area

There are deserts and basins with colorful stones

Recommendation index: ★★


Grand Canyon National Park

Grand Canyon National Park

The most famous in the national park

Undoubtedly Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon

The actual landscape is not too prestigious

It's really a very, very big canyon


When I first saw the Grand Canyon

Visually it's still very impactful

Recommendation index: ★★★


Bryce Canyon National Park

Bryce Canyon National Park

The topography of Bryce Canyon is very unique

Layers of protruding red rocks


If it happened to be in snowy weather

The landscape of Hongyan and white snow is still very good

Recommendation index: ★★★


Zion National Park

Zion National Park

In theory, Zion National Park is an outdoor shrine

Many people who like outdoor activities rate it highly

But for me there is only this very classic machine position

Then there is a lot of red in the park, which is special

Recommendation index: ★★


Rocky mountain national park

Rocky Mountain National Park

Rocky Mountain is not far from Denver and convenient transportation

There are snowy mountains, lakes and various small wild flowers

Be regarded as the representative landscape of Colorado

Recommendation index: ★★


Wind Cave National Park

Wind Cave National Park

There are a total of three cave types in the national park

Wind Tunnel, Mammoth Cave and Carlsbad Caverns

If you only go to one, you will undoubtedly choose the last one

The wind tunnel is characterized by wonderful air circulation

You will pass by the landmark Mount Rushmore nearby

Recommendation index: ★


Badlands national park

Badlands National Park

Although the name Badlands sounds ugly

But actually the color of the rock is very rich


Representative geopark of bad terrain

Recommendation index: ★★


Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone national park

Yellowstone as a representative of the national park

No need for any additional introduction


There are many iconic hot springs

Such as the big prism and the old faithful


The area of ​​the park is very large

The landscape types are also very rich

Grassland lake waterfall mountain range

There are many wild animals


The dark sky at night is also very nice

The only downside is that there are more tourists

Very different in the national park

Because the others are quieter

Recommendation index: ★★★


Grand Teton National Park

Grand Teton National Park

Grand Teton should be nice in theory

But due to the general season and weather

The effect of the photo seems a bit ordinary

But you can’t go wrong with snowy mountains, lakes and rivers

Recommendation index: ★★


Crater lake national park

Crater Lake National Park

As the name suggests, it is the lake of the crater

The lake water is very pure blue


It's a must-choice destination to go to Oregon, right?

Recommendation index: ★★


Redwood National Park

Redwood National Park

California has three similar national parks

They are all based on the theme of California’s representative cedar trees

They are Redwood, Sequoia and Kings Canyon

There are the tallest, largest, and second largest trees respectively


In addition to the forest, the mahogany has a part near the sea

It's a bit richer than the other two

Recommendation index: ★


Lassen Volcanic National Park

Lassen Volcanic National Park

Lassen Volcano is the largest dome volcano

There are forests, rivers, hot springs and other landscapes

Recommendation index: ★


Great Basin National Park

Great Basin National Park

The big basin is of course a big basin

Other than that, it seems normal


But the dark sky conditions here are good

The so-called half of the beauty of the park is after nightfall

Recommendation index: ★


Canyonlands National Park

Canyonlands National Park

Canyonlands are actually much better than expected

I even think it's comparable to the Grand Canyon


Canyonlands, Arches, and Capitol Reef in Utah

Are all this iconic red rock geology

Recommendation index: ★★★


Arches National Park

Arches National Park

The Delicate Arch is a landmark in Utah

Many people also rate it very highly


Although the arch bridge landscape is quite special

But my overall experience is relatively average

Maybe it was too hot when I went

Recommendation index: ★


Capitol Reef National Park

Capitol Reef National Park

The origin of the name is probably the white rock formation

Just like the dome of the Great Mountain in the United States


But the more interesting place here is

There are many gardens where you can pick fruits

Recommendation index: ★★


Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park

Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park

The name of this national park is so long

But as the name suggests is a black canyon


The black canyon is really special

It was early autumn when I went there

Recommendation index: ★★


Gateway Arch National Park

St. Louis Arches National Park

This is a rather different national park

Compared with the natural landscape, the artificial traces are obvious


I have to say that this arch is quite photogenic

But it doesn’t fit the tradition of the national park

It's not bad to visit St. Louis by the way

Recommendation index: ★


Joshua Tree National Park

Joshua Tree National Park

Joshua Tree is still very special

There will be an illusion of an alien

Joshua under the night sky is also very beautiful


There are actually Joshua trees outside the park

And there are more than just Joshua trees in the park

So the uniqueness is slightly reduced

Recommendation index: ★★


Channel Islands National Park

Channel Islands National Park

The Channel Islands are islands in the strait

So you need to take a boat to get there

If the wind and waves are strong that day

The itinerary may be cancelled directly

Or get vomited on the boat


But the quality of the scenery is very high

There are even wild foxes on the island

Compensation after strong winds and waves

Recommendation index: ★★★


Pinnacles national park

Spire National Park

I heard it was boring before I went here

Then after I went, it was really boring


Just a plain mountain

Then there is some running water on the top of the mountain

Recommendation index: ★


Sequoia national park

Sequoia National Park

Here is the biggest tree in the world

The huge cedar tree is very spectacular

The park after snow is also very special


But it is similar to the other two parks

So I’ve been to one of the three.

Recommendation index: ★★


Kings Canyon National Park

Kings Canyon National Park

This is the second largest tree in the world

The whole landscape is the big cedar tree


Kings Canyon and Sequoia are very close

So it's very convenient to drop by

Recommendation index: ★


Yosemite National Park

Yosemite National Park

Yosemite may be the third most famous

Very big canyon and many waterfalls

Many photos and perspectives are very classic


There will be a view of the fire waterfall in February

The others are nothing special

Recommendation index: ★★★


Indiana Dunes National Park

Indiana Dunes National Park

Is the dunes of Indiana

But in fact around Lake Michigan

There are many dunes like this

The biggest advantage is that it’s close to Chicago

Recommendation index: ★


Great Sand Dunes National Park

Great Sand Dunes National Park

I thought it was a big sand dune

There should be nothing special

But the actual experience is actually very good


The desert itself is very photogenic

It's a very popular place

Then you can play in the sand


The desert night is also very suitable for stargazing

Recommendation index: ★★★


Petrified forest national park

Petrified Forest National Park

There are many petrified trees in the park

This is also the origin of the name

It feels like the vicissitudes of life


The content of the park is quite rich

There are various terrains and rock formations

Recommendation index: ★★


Saguaro National Park

Pillars of Giants National Park

Giant pillars are huge cacti

The cactus taller than people is shocking


Similar to the problem of Joshua Tree

There are also many cacti outside the park

So it's not so unique

Recommendation index: ★★


Congoree National Park

Congaree National Park

As a forest type ecosystem

The aerial roots are unique here


The trail inside is very beautiful

The overall area is small and easy to walk


It's better if you mix it with red leaves in autumn

Recommendation index: ★★★


Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Great Smoky Mountains National Park

As the most visited park every year

The Great Smoky Mountain seems a little bit of a misnomer

The overall feeling is that there is a big mountain with smoke

It may be worth seeing the fireflies in early summer


But as a large forest park

It looks good when the light is good

Recommendation index: ★★


Glacier National Park

Glacier National Park

Except not close to any big cities

Glacier National Park has no disadvantages


The landscape diversity here is very high

Glaciers, mountains, lakes, rivers and waterfalls


The area of ​​the park is also very large

There are many types of wild animals

Can spend a lot of time exploring


It’s better to catch up with a good climate

Recommendation index: ★★★


Mount Rainier National Park

Mount Rainier National Park

Mount Rainier is very close to Seattle

As a snow mountain, the value will not be low

There are a lot of wild flowers if the time is right


Mount Rainier has many classic photos

But the weather was very bad when I went

So there are no good photos left

Recommendation index: ★★


Olympic National Park

Olympic National Park

The Olympic area is very large

The landscape diversity is also very rich


Mountains, rivers, lakes, and tropical rainforests

I have everything I can think of


The sea of ​​clouds rolling on the top of the mountain is also wonderful

Recommendation index: ★★★


North Cascades National Park

North Cascade National Park

Cascade means waterfall

There are many very slender waterfalls here

The others are nothing special


The road in the park in autumn is quite beautiful

You can go around when going around Seattle

Recommendation index: ★


Shenandoah National Park

Shenandoah National Park

Xanadu should be famous for its autumn scenery

Unfortunately it was a bit early when I went

The leaves are not red enough and the autumn scenery is not very obvious

The weather is not good and it has been raining


If the time is right and the weather is good

The autumn scenery here should be pretty good

Recommendation index: ★★


Travelers National Park

Explorer National Park

As outside of Alaska

Relatively able to see the aurora

It's a compromise choice


It's like a boat fishing place

But selfishly feel that Aurora has too many points

Recommendation index: ★★


Dry Tortugas National Park

Dry Turtle Island National Park

Although it is called Dry Turtle Island

But there are no dried turtles


This is an ancient sea fortress

Like a place isolated from the world

The water is very clear and you can snorkel


If the wind and waves are big if you go by boat

There is also a risk of seasickness and nausea

Seaplane is slightly more expensive but more comfortable

Recommendation index: ★★


Biscayne National Park

Biscayne National Park

Came to an island on the sea by boat

Many yachts and parties on the island

Apart from that there is really nothing

Recommendation index: ★


Hot Springs National Park

Hot Springs National Park

This national park is relatively different

Is to protect the ancient spa therapy culture

You can also experience a bath here

Recommendation index: ★


Mammoth Cave National Park

Mammoth Cave National Park

National park as a cave

It's nothing more than a variety of stalactite rock formations

Slightly better than the wind tunnel

But far less than Carlsbad Caverns

Recommendation index: ★★


Big bend national park

Big Bend National Park

The reason why this park is called Big Bend

Because there is a big bend in the river


The park is located on the U.S.-Mexico border

The area is large and the landscape is relatively vast

Recommendation index: ★★


Guadalupe Mountains National Park

Guadalupe Mountains National Park

In addition to being the highest peak in Texas

Actually, there is nothing worthy of nostalgia


It just happened to catch up before the snow

More fantastic weather and light

So the photos look better

Recommendation index: ★


Carlsbad Caverns National Park

Carlsbad Caverns National Park

Carlsbad Caverns without a doubt

Is the pinnacle of the cave-like national park


The scale of the cave is very large and the shape is fantastic

There is a magical feeling of the earth's inner world


If I can only go to one cave, I recommend it here

Recommendation index: ★★★


White Sands National Park

White Sands National Park

A large white desert

Still very artistic


In theory, many films can be produced

Recommendation index: ★★★


Cuyahoga Valley National Park

Cuyahoga Valley National Park

Is actually an ordinary valley

The photos look good only because of the good light


More like an outing place around Cleveland

Recommendation index: ★


Theodore roosevelt national park

Theodore Roosevelt National Park

Here is also represented by the badlands landscape

But it’s actually much better than expected


The main disadvantage is that it is located in North Dakota

There is nothing else around here except here


The comprehensiveness of the park itself is good

Recommendation index: ★★


Haleakalā National Park

Halekara National Park

This perspective is still very beautiful

If you go to Maui in Hawaii

It's still worth a visit here


On the other side is the representative black of the volcano

Recommendation index: ★★


Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park

If possible in this life

Must see a live volcano once


Samsung during the eruption

One star when there is no activity

The scenery at night is definitely three stars

The view during the day is only one star


If it catches up with the good weather

For example, the rainbow reaches into the crater of the volcano

It's also a very unforgettable existence

Recommendation index: ★★★


Just like this, every park has a few words

Finished talking about fifty national parks


I always feel that the charm of natural landscape lies in

It will not change with the will of the person

All those beautiful moments are only you

Personally approach, discover, and wait

To become a moment in my heart


Mountains, rivers, lakes, milky way, starry sky

Desert waterfall volcano aurora

Every moment in every scene

Unparalleled and eternal
