Out of the 53 National Parks I’ve been to, these are my 5 favorites🏞️

5️⃣ Acadia. Gotta give some love to an east coast park. There’s so much to do and see between hiking up Cadillac Mountain, exploring Bar Harbor, and checking out the Schoodic Peninsula if you have time.

4️⃣ Great Sand Dunes. I haven’t done much traveling outside the US, but this is a place that just doesn’t seem to belong here. Hiking up High Dune was lowkey one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. My legs were burning in the sand.

3️⃣ Grand Teton. This one’s pretty special, my friends and I did a 40 mile loop in the back country and we may have bit off more than we could chew. But the mountains are absolutely stunning and the wildlife is great. Just watch out for bears.

2️⃣ Olympic. Washington is beautiful but I think Olympic has some of the best sights. Mount Storm King, Crescent Lake, and Hoh rainforest. Not to mention the rocky beaches.

1️⃣ Glacier. This one’s been at the top of my list for a while. It might be the prettiest place in the country and has some of the best hikes out there. I also found Buc-ee just outside the park. Might have been fate.
