4.Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado
This park encompasses an area of approximately 415 square miles of the well-known mountain range. This park features more than 350 miles of hiking trails complete with alpine lakes and snow-capped peaks. Split by the famous Continental Divide, this park shows visitors a totally different side in the winter.
It is a great place for winter hiking and snowshoeing. In fact, you can sign up for a ranger-led snowshoe hike. If you’re an amateur, don’t worry. Newcomers are welcome. You can go sledding and skiing here as well.
5 .Canyonlands National Park, Utah
Canyonlands National Park in Moab is the state’s largest national park. It’s divided into three sections: the popular, panoramic Island in the sky, the colorful Needles district, and the “no man’s land” known as the Maze. Veteran visitors say the panoramic views and scarlet rocks are even more striking under a blanket of white, virgin snow.
Additionally, it is a surprisingly peaceful place in the winter. While some of the hiking trails can be closed due to heavy snowfall, others remain open. Be sure to visit the Grand View Overlook and see the sunrise or sunset. The light reflecting off the snow makes it nigh magical.
