America’s diverse landscape means there is so much to explore within our own country. From sweeping green forests and majestic, snow-capped mountains to undulating sand dunes and rugged rock formations, much of it can be discovered within our National Parks. Although there are currently 63 official National Parks in America, our National Park System includes over 419 park sites spanning over 84-million acres across the states and in extended territories of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa.

America is big and beautiful. And we’re not referring to those world-famous cities. This is your reminder that America’s natural beauty rivals anywhere in the world. These four national parks are worth making a pilgrimage for.
