Natural Wonders

The national parks in both Canada and the USA are by definition landscapes of national significance. It is a sure bet they will offer the visitor and outdoor enthusiast spectacular sights and recreational opportunities. They are a draw card for locals as well as out of state visitors. In 1998, for example, nearly 30 million U.S. residents traveled 100 miles or more, to visit a national park. Volcanoes are found both within and without the parks. If your itinerary permits, you might also want to explore:

  • national wilderness areas

  • national recreation areas

  • national monuments

  • wild and scenic rivers

  • national and state forests

  • wildlife refuges

  • state and provincial parks

  • city parks and gardens

You might wish to take in these attractions via the national and state scenic byways.
