That often means that the most popular countries and destinations are over-represented and that these are more the favorites rather than the best. However, it’s still very interesting to know which ones come up most often.
Here are the national parks outside Canada that are the favorite of our fans.
1. Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming/Montana/Idaho, U.S.)
Created in 1872, it is the world’s first national park! Home to iconic sights like Old Faithful, the Grand Prismatic Spring, and the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River, it showcases nature’s beauty and power.
2. Plitvice Lakes National Park (Croatia)
This park features a series of cascading lakes and waterfalls connected by crystal-clear turquoise waters. You can wander along wooden walkways and trails and fully soak in the park’s peaceful atmosphere.
3. Zion National Park (Utah, U.S.)
The park’s unique landscape, shaped by millions of years of natural erosion, offers breathtaking views and photo opportunities, especially along the famous Angels Landing and The Narrows hikes.
4. Galápagos National Park (Ecuador)
Offering an unparalleled wildlife experience, this park is home to an incredible array of species found nowhere else on Earth, including giant tortoises, marine iguanas, and blue-footed boobies, all of which roam freely in their natural habitat.
