Have you ever been to a national park? They are among the most popular destinations in America with visitors numbering in the millions each year, many of whom are RVers. Before we retired and started traveling in our motorhome, neither my husband nor I had ever been to a national park. Now, though, we are on a quest to visit as many of these treasured vacation spots as we can.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-1.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-1″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

So Many Places to See<\/b><\/p>\n

Visiting any of the 63 national parks in your RV is a great way to spend time outdoors and see the vast beauty of our country up close. The national parks are only a small part of what\u2019s known as the National Park System, which includes 424 individual areas that span more than 85 million acres!<\/span><\/p>\n

These areas include historic sites such as monuments and battlefields as well as seashores, scenic rivers, trails and, interestingly, the White House. Located throughout the country, each area provides a unique insight into the region and includes many environments like lakes, mountains, caves, forests and even sand dunes. There\u2019s truly something for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-2.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-2″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

The Variety is Amazing<\/b><\/p>\n

The wide variety of things to see and do in each of these national park areas is incredible. No matter what your interests are, you can be sure to find something you will enjoy. Photographing nature and observing the scenery and wildlife is always big on my list.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-3.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-3″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

Every park we\u2019ve visited has had numerous hiking trails for exploring the area\u2019s diversity. We also saw many jaw-dropping geological features. If history is your thing, you will find an abundance of information and interesting facts about both the park itself and the surrounding area on-site. Plus, the dark skies in the more remote parks allow for unbeatable stargazing opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-5.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-5″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

My husband and I are fortunate to have experienced many exciting activities in the parks we\u2019ve visited. We cruised around mountain lakes on a charter boat in Glacier National Park, rode on a thrilling jeep excursion in Canyonlands National Park, explored the inside of caves at Carlsbad Caverns National Park, soaked in a hot spring pool at Hot Springs National Park, walked (and drove!) through a redwood tree in Redwood National Park and flew in a seaplane to Dry Tortugas National Park and snorkeled in the ocean, just to name a few. All kinds of unique adventures await you in our country\u2019s parks!<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-6.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-6″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

Plan Your Visit<\/b><\/p>\n

With so many options, one of the hardest things to do is deciding where you want to go first. A great way to start is by checking out <\/span>NPS.gov<\/span><\/a>. The National Park System website is easy to use and allows you to learn more about the parks, including visitor center operating hours, road and trail conditions, weather, safety tips, camping information and available activities.<\/span> It is important to check for any active alerts or closures that might be in effect as well as restricted access areas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the past few years, several parks have implemented a timed ticket entry system to manage visitation levels. This $2 ticket is in addition to park entry fees and must be purchased ahead of time at <\/span>Recreation.gov<\/span><\/a> (Hint: if you can\u2019t get a ticket, you can still enter the park at off times before or after the ticket windows). The parks currently affected are Arches National Park, Glacier National Park, Haleakala National Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, but some other parks are increasingly requiring reservations and permits to access some of their most popular areas, such as watching the sunrise on Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park.<\/span><\/p>\n

Save Money with a Park Pass<\/b><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re going to visit several parks in a single road trip, you can save money by purchasing a National Parks Pass. Available at the park entrance or <\/span>online<\/span><\/a>, a pass costs $80 for annual access to all national parks and federal recreation lands for one vehicle or up to 4 people. Given that entrance fees for some parks are $35 each, visiting 3 parks makes the cost worthwhile. There are also free lifetime passes available for seniors, veterans and those with permanent disabilities, as well as free annual passes for active duty military members and all 4<\/span>th<\/span> graders. <\/span>View all the available passes here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

When You Arrive<\/b><\/p>\n

Planning your trip ahead of time will allow you to make the most of your time in the park. When you arrive, I highly suggest starting at the visitor center. Here, you can watch a short film to learn the history and geography of the park. Make sure you talk to a park ranger, too. They are the experts who can answer questions, offer suggestions for activities, provide trail maps and let you know about special events like guided hikes or ranger talks.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-8.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-8″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

You can use all of this information to help plan the duration of your visit, including details on where to park, getting to the most popular sites and finding unique adventures you don\u2019t want to miss! Don\u2019t forget to stamp your National Parks Passport and browse the gift shop for a memento to commemorate your stop.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-9.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-9″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

Get Out in the Park<\/b><\/p>\n

After checking out the visitor center, you\u2019ll be ready to head into the park! We often start with a scenic drive so we can stop at the overlooks and take everything in. Some of the most stunning viewpoints are at these overlooks. This is a great time to have your camera handy to capture the gorgeous scenery.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-10.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-10″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

If we plan to spend several days in the park, we usually wait until day 2 to do some hiking. Since we\u2019ve already received trail information and have likely decided on a specific hike, we can get an early start to beat the crowds \u2014 and the heat.<\/span><\/p>\n

Always make sure you bring the necessary supplies for whatever activities you have chosen to do. For example, you will definitely want to wear good walking shoes and pack sunscreen, a hat, plenty of water and snacks that won\u2019t melt or spoil. If the trail has a high elevation, walking sticks are extremely helpful. Don\u2019t forget the bear spray, if required!<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-11.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-11″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

Respect Nature<\/b><\/p>\n

Whatever you choose to do in the national park, please remember to minimize your impact on the park\u2019s plants, animals and ecosystem. The motto \u201cleave no trace\u201d encourages visitors to respect wildlife, be considerate of others, leave what you find, stay on trails and properly dispose of waste.<\/span><\/p>\n

We are so fortunate that conservationists and leaders had the foresight to create the National Park Service back in 1916. The government agency ensures the preservation of our nation\u2019s natural beauty and resources so they will be around for everyone to enjoy and learn from for years to come.<\/span><\/p>\n

Have Fun and Make Memories<\/b><\/p>\n

Traveling in your RV is the perfect way to experience a national park. You can camp within the park or at a nearby commercial campground. We often meet up with family or friends for even more fun during our stay. Whatever areas you visit or activities you choose, you are sure to create lasting memories!<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nirvc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-12.jpg” title_text=”NIRVC-National-Parks-Have-Something-for-Everyone-12″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]
