- Over the past decade, I've traveled solo to all 63 major US national parks.
- I always love returning to places like Acadia National Park in Maine.
- However, there are some parks I don't plan on returning to because they're more difficult to get to.
I've spent the last decadetraveling soloto all 63 major US national parks. Although I've found incredible beauty in each park, I find myself continually going back to some, while others I'm happy to have seen once.
Theparks I keep returning toare varied and more generally accessible, meaning I can visit more often with less expense and a shorter planning period.
On the other hand, theparks I'm glad to have only seen onceare likely some of the most impressive parks of all — but they're more challenging to get to logistically and financially.
Here are the three parks I love returning to, and the three I'm glad I've checked off my list.
