America's National Parks are jammed packed with visitors desiring to escape from the last 18 months of lockdowns. If you don't want to battle for parking spaces or wait in long lines at concessions and bathrooms at the major parks, Trip Advisor offers ten crowd-free alternatives that are almost as amazing. I've paired the crowded park with the alternative.
Great Basin National Park for Yosemite National Park
Lassen National Park for Yellowstone National Park
Cumberland Gap National Historical Park for Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Cobscook Shores State Park for Acadia National Park
Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park for Grand Canyon National Park
Guadalupe Mountains National Park for Joshua Tree National Park
North Cascades National Park for Glacier National Park
Capitol Reef National Park for Zion National Park
The Wind River Range for Grand Teton National Park
Indian Peaks Wilderness for Rocky Mountain National Park
