Grand Canyon, courtesy National Park Service Yes, that means you can get free entry at the 147 national parks that charge admission. There are so many parks to choose from… where shall we go? You’re in luck if you’re headed to the National Parks next week because admission is free April 17-25, 2010! In searching the web, I found a great resource to share with the Hiking Lady community: a wonderful table that has details on what every U.S National Park has to offer. Want to know if a park charges fees? How about if there are ranger led tours? Need a backcountry permit?  National Park System Guide - lots of detail! The print is small, but the guide is a valuable resource. So grab a magnifying glass and enjoy! National Park System Guide (1 page PDF file) Happy trails!  Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve, photo courtesy of NPS Since there are 8 U.S. National Parks in Alaska, it will take careful coordination and planning to reach them all. The 2 northernmost parks, Kobuk Valley and Gates of the Arctic offer the additional challenge and adventure of needing to fly in. Have you been to Kobuk Valley or Gates of the Arctic? Here’s my advice about traveling to those 2 parks! |
