11. Indiana Dunes National Park

Indiana

There are 15 miles of sandy beach as well as 50 miles of trails through wetlands, prairies, rivers, and forests for visitors to explore at Indiana Dunes. The park, located in the southwest corner of Lake Michigan in northeast Indiana, is just 50 miles from Chicago.

In 2022, slightly more than 2.8 million people visited Indiana Dunes. That can be compared with the 2021 tally, when just under 3.2 million people visited the park.

10. Glacier National Park

Montana

Glacier, which the National Park Service calls the “Crown of the Continent,” is known for its rugged mountains, beautiful lakes, and more than 700 miles of scenic trails. One of the park’s most popular attractions is the Going-to-the-Sun Road, an almost 50-mile scenic road that makes its way through the park — even crossing the Continental Divide at Logan Pass.

In 2022, slightly more than 2.9 million people visited Glacier. While that number is down from 2021, when just under 3.1 million people visited Glacier, it must be noted that 2021 was also the second-highest year for attendance at the park.
