Northern Montana’s Glacier National Park is home to expansive green forests, shining blue lakes, and towering mountain peaks. The park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is co-managed with Waterton Lakes National Park because it extends up to the Canadian border. Veteran visitors vouch you will find one of America’s most stunning scenic drives here: the popular Going-to-the-Sun Road. Officially opened in 1933, this road is 51 miles in length and is said by some to be “an engineering marvel.” This US park is highlighted by alpine plateaus, great glaciers, lovely lakes, and rushing waterfalls.
This often underrated and comparatively hidden gem located in the southwest corner of Texas gets less attention from typical tourists for mainly one reason. It is one of the most difficult national parks to access. Unlike some national parks, however, visitors can enjoy this one all year.
It’s one of the most biodiverse US parks in the nation. Here you may discover over 22 different species of lizards, 75 distinct species of mammals, and 450 bird species. You can explore the Chisos Mountains, the Chihuahuan Desert, and the famous Rio Grande.
