This park is nestled along the Canadian border. Water lovers will like this place as it is more than 40 percent water. Specifically, it’s a group of joined waterways, and the Kabetogama, the Namakan, the Rainy, and the Sand Point Lakes.
People have lived around here around the waterways for more than 10,000 years. They have fished here, foraged here, and even used the waterways to transport things. Some do these things here to this day.
This park is also an official, certified International Dark Sky Park so stargazing here is not not only incredible here but also a place to spot the aurora borealis.
This park is situated in the state’s southwest corner. It is believed to get fewer tourists because it is one of the most difficult parks to access. Unlike some parks, however, people can enjoy this park all year.
This is one of the country’s most biodiverse parks. Its residents include more than 450 species of birds, 75 different species of mammals, 22 different species of lizards, and three different landscapes around the Chihuahuan Desert, the Chisos Mountains, and the well-known Rio Grande. Here you can go camping, take a canoe trip down the mighty Rio Grande, hike to the hot springs, or go bird-watching on the Window Trail.
