Thank you all who work to preserve the parks. I had the privilege of visiting seven of the national parks so far and all within the past 7-8 years. It was a great way for me to plan and visit areas within the U.S. An excuse to visit an area which you may not get the chance to visit otherwise. From visiting Acadia to Joshua Tree, Yellowstone, and Mammoth cave.
It is probably one of the best ways to explore the U.S. nature and learn about different part of the country. Thank you all!
Sincerely,
Shenandoah National Park
Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains in central Virginia, Shenandoah features rolling tree-lined hills, wooded hollows, spectacular waterfalls and a diversity of wildlife, all easily accessible from the scenic Skyline Drive. The park preserves a remarkable slice of southern Appalachian natural history and beauty with a dazzling array of recreational opportunities.
State(s): Virginia
