Do you love spending time outside and immersing yourself in gorgeous landscapes — maybe you’d like a side of history tossed in for good measure. The National Park Service reports over 300 million recreational visits to its parks, parkways, and memorials every year by people just like you.
It might seem strange that a parkway would garner so much attention, but you’re looking at over 460 miles through some of North America’s most captivating landscapes.
Aside from the chance to see remarkable species of flora and fauna, you can hike and explore virtually untouched landscapes or fish in several thousand miles of streams.
