Summer is the time for … climbing the peak … hitting the trail … rafting
the gorge …even discovering our history. Before heading out for
adventure, all but the most spontaenous traveler spends at least a
little time planning an itinerary, negotiating routes and researching
the environs. If you’re looking for great places and things to do,
here’s a website that will help.
The National Park Service’s 2010 Summer Adventure trip planning website connects visitors to travel resources, events and services at national parks across the country. Visit the site at www.nps.gov/pub_aff/plan_your_visit/index.htm.
An easy-to-navigate design links visitors to sites of interest,
lodging, upcoming events and tips to get the most out of their national
park adventure. An interactive calendar makes it easy to search for
special events by state or by park. Visitors will also find information
about educational programs in the national parks and an array of travel
guides.
Last year more than 285 million people visited national parks. Make this the year for your national park adventure.
