National parks are great weekend escapes for city dwellers, travel enthusiasts, and students who are ready to explore the wild. Almost all the national parks in the United States are worth visiting. Yet for visitors who are heading to the East, here are three of the national parks they can explore and enjoy.
Congaree National Park
The Congaree National Park is located in South Carolina and is the largest hardwood forest that survives—to this day—in the eastern periphery of the United States. The perpetual flooding in the area results in more than bald Cypress trees and Spanish moss, which makes it perfect for birds and wildlife spotting. The park, set in an area of 22,000 acres, is a home for otters, alligators, bobcats, deer, and a vast variety of birds. It offers great access to hikers down the 7km long Western Lake Loop Trail. The Kingsnake Trail, which is 19k long, is heaven for sighting birds.
Everglades National Park
Astoundingly huge at 1.5million acres, the Everglades National Park is the largest sub-tropical chunk of wilderness in the whole of United States. It is a huge reserve that consists of mangroves and sawgrass. Visitors can move around in small boats through small channels. Walls of high grass tower on either side.
Acadia National Park
Acadia is the first and premier national park of the East and is the most dramatic one that Maine has in store for its tourists. Cadillac Mountain and Bar Harbor offer different attractions, yet are equally astonishing. However, the Otter Cliff is considered the main attraction, standing at 34m high, making it a headland tallest than any north of Rio.
Dywer and Associates works on preserving and restoring natural habitats by supporting the further expansion of the country’s national park system. For more posts like this, click here.
