Unlock America’s Wildest Secrets: 28 National Park Road Trips That Will Transform Your Soul and Ignite Your Adventure Spirit

253. North Cascades National Park

Washington’s North Cascades National Park, also known as the “American Alps,” is one of the least visited parks in the country—and yet it’s also one of the most strikingly beautiful. Located in the northern park of Washington, this glacially carved range is covered with snow-topped peaks with water flowing down into alpine lakes, rivers, and valleys. Drive the scenic highway, hike up to Cascade Pass, or stop by Diablo Lake Vista.

The park is beautiful year-round but most accessible in the summer and early fall before it snows. North Cascades Highway is generally open from June to November, which is the main road to access most of the park.
