US NATIONAL PARKS

The US is home to 63 National Parks and it is my mission to visit all of them.

These protected areas preserve beautiful landscapes, unique features, and diverse ecosystems. We now have the privilege of visiting these areas to learn, enjoy, and keep them for future generations.

On this page, I’ve compiled all of my itineraries, list of things to do, road trips, guides, and more for each National Park that I’ve visited. Scroll down to find a link to the specific park you’re looking for, or browse this page for inspiration for your next trip!

Spend 9 days road tripping through Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. This is a great trip to do if you have 5 days of PTO + 2 weekends to spend. You’ll spend 5 days visiting multiple locations in Yellowstone and 3 days exploring the Grand Tetons.

Spend 7 days road tripping through Northern California with this fun itinerary geared toward hikers. You’ll see Redwood and Lassen Volcanic National Parks, and with more time you can visit Crater Lake in Oregon as well. Other highlights are Burney Falls State Park, the California coast, and Point Reyes National Seashore.

Spend 9 days road tripping from Capitol Reef National Park to Bryce Canyon National Park via one of Utah’s most scenic roads: Scenic Byway 12. You’ll spend 3 days in Capitol Reef, 3 days in Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, and 1 day in Bryce Canyon National Park. This is a great trip to get off the beaten path in Utah and avoid the crowds.
