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.
And what are people doing in the great outdoors? They
are enjoying mountains, lakes and beaches, boating, biking, canoeing,
camping and hiking. The more
adventurous are skiing, rafting, scuba diving, and mountain biking.
