From Chicago to…
When it comes to natural beauty and breathtaking scenery, nothing beats taking in the best National Parks that the United States has to offer. Where else can you see lush green forests, trees bigger than the tallest skyscrapers, majestic mountains and valleys, and a bounty of flora, fauna and wildlife?
While you can read about these locations, there’s nothing like taking in the history and experiencing them in person. When you’re ready to craft your perfect National Park adventure, the experts at Sunset Travel & Cruise can tell you exactly what you’re going to see and the things that you can experience.
The United States is home to a total of 58 national parks, and some of the most popular options make great travel destinations to explore. Thanks to the more than 400 locations under the care of the National Park Service, travelers are never at a loss for ways to discover all that nature has to offer.
Whether your ideal vacation includes a magnificent national park with plenty of options for outdoor recreation, a historic site where you can dig deep into the history of our country, or a place where the rivers run free and the fish are jumping, Sunset Travel in Chicago can help plan the perfect vacation that takes advantage of the National Park System.
Located in central California, Yosemite National Park was established in 1890 and boasts some of the best views, hiking trails, and family vacation opportunities in the country – drawing more than four million annual visitors.
The park is roughly the size of Rhode Island, and almost 95 percent of the 747,956 acres is classified as wilderness.
The Valley is a seven-mile wide canyon with awe-inspiring rock formations, including El Capitan, the world’s tallest granite monolith, which has become one of the world’s top rock climbing destinations.
Yosemite Falls is the largest waterfall in North America, and the park is also known for its Giant Sequoia trees, which are estimated to be over 3,000 years old.
Yosemite is our nation’s first land dedicated to recreation and enjoyment, and there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy this pristine land.
Popular activities in Yosemite National Park include:
Colorado has more national parks than just about any other state, and one of the most popular – and stunning – is Rocky Mountain National Park.
Located in northern Colorado just outside the popular tourist town of Estes Park, it’s one of the highest-altitude national parks and home to 60 different peaks.
It’s a great family vacation destination, offering outdoor experiences for everyone – from easy nature hikes around the clear mountain lakes and camping, to scrambles up the rocks of waterfalls and mountains.
Scratch incredible experiences off your bucket list like exploring the Wild Basin, watch a sunset over the Never Summer Mountains, or get your junior ranger badge when you visit this stunning national park.
