Best Books on National Parks for Roadtrips
#1. Complete National Parks of the United States
by National Geographic
Nat Geo’s Complete National Parks of the United States is a comprehensive guide to the 400+ national park sites that make up the National Park System. This resource is ideal for roadtripping families because it includes a host of national park sites that aren’t national parks but are no less interesting or remarkable.
National Monuments such as Devil’s Tower and Craters of the Moon are truly remarkable (and lesser known) treasures. National Historic Sites, National Battlefields, and National Recreation Areas are equally rewarding.
Complete National Parks of the United States includes detailed information, historical background, helpful maps, and the jaw-dropping photographs that National Geographic is known for.
#2. Guide to National Parks of the United States
by National Geographic
National Parks take center stage in Nat Geo’s Guide to National Parks of the United States. This guide is dedicated entirely to the 63 National Parks of the US, with minimal focus on the other kinds of national park sites.
The guide does a great job of providing all that you need to know in a way that’s both attractive and accessible. This book is both easy and enjoyable to use.
#3. 10 Best of Everything National Parks: 800 Top Picks From Parks Coast to Coast
by National Geographic
10 Best of Everything National Parks offers another way to prepare for your national parks roadtrip. Unlike a typical travel guide, this resource begins with the activity instead of the destination. Peruse the best of what the national parks offer and then build your trips accordingly!
#4. The Complete Guide to the National Parks of the USA
by Fodor’s Travel
Fodor’s Complete Guide to the National Parks is a no-nonsense resource for those who want “just the facts”. While Nat Geo guides take a magazine-like approach, Fodor’s is more reference-minded. This guide is packed with key information including monthly temperatures, trail facts, and essential know-before-you go tips.
#5. USA National Parks
by Lonely Planet
Lonely Planet’s USA National Parks guide is a great blend of beauty and purpose. They’ve taken the best parts of Nat Geo’s imagery and Fodor’s functionality to make a top-notch travel book.
#6. Where Should We Camp Next? National Parks
by Stephanie & Jeremy Puglisi
Where Should We Camp Next? National Parks is a favorite for roadtripping families, and for good reason. This easy-to-use guide provides a quick synopsis of the camping sites available in and around America’s favorite national park sites. The guidebook is only one of many Where Should We Camp Next resources.
#7. National Park Adventure Planning Journal
by My Nature Book Adventures
Here’s the gift for the planner-documenter crowd! My Nature Book Adventures produces excellent, attractive travel journals.
The National Park Adventure Planning Journal is an ideal gift for a friend or family committed to visiting every national park. This notebook includes aids for trip planning and sections for journalling each national park visit.
Travel notebooks are a powerful part of our home school. Our children put their new learning and skills to work by completing their travel journal for each site that we visit.
#8. National Parks, National Monuments, & National Historic Sites Planning Journal
by My Nature Book Adventures
The National Parks are only the best known of a host of national park sites. The National Parks, National Monuments, & National Historic Sites Planning Journal takes your national parks journal to a whole new level.
Travel journals are a great way to document your adventures. I especially love the journal prompts because they help you to capture memories that may not make it into a picture.
Prompts like “A laughable moment” and “why I went” allows you to document details that will otherwise blur and fade away.
#9. The National Parks Scavenger Hunt
by Stacie Tornio
The National Park Scavenger Hunt is another great on-site resource. This book features fact-packed scavenger hunts for each national park.
#10. National Park Activity Books
by Little Bison Press
Drive time is part of the National Parks experience. National Park Activity Books gives the kids a way to get into the park even before you reach the park gates.
#11. Art of the National Parks: Coloring Book
by Fifty-Nine Parks
Coloring is another excellent way to pass the miles, especially when the book is produced by one of the top names in national parks art.
