If you are considering a National Park adventure this summer, you have come to the right place. I will spare you the details of my own adventure years ago. Instead, I have some links to help you choose what is best for you.




Where to go and stay?

National Geographic's Adventure Magazine has published the Great Lodges of the Great Parks, featuring the top lodges in America's national parks. If you want the best, this is probably THE list for you.

Check out the park profiles of Parks in other areas here, should you want something else.

Travelling with kids?Check out the top spots for Parents and Kids, an exclusive survey from child.com.

And get more info at Travel Channel's Guide to Camping with Infants & Toddlers.

Whether you're planning an elaborate camping trip, just a day hitch-hiking or an adventure with the kids for the summer, it is always important to plan your trip and be well prepared.

Plan, prepare and enjoy!
