9 Big Bend National Park, Texas
The heat in West Texas is notorious. Indeed, the only time there are closures here is when it gets too hot in the summer. Unsurprisingly then, the best time to visit this national park is during the winter months. Veteran visitors say one of the most popular activities here is to go hiking.
