There is so much natural wonder to witness in America that will inspire awe in even the most cynical explorer. The country is full of breathtaking state and national parks that give adventurers, amateur enthusiasts and experienced hikers alike, a stunning snapshot of America's natural beauty.
LoveExploring compiled a list of the "best national park" in every state, from "big-hitting" destinations that draw in millions of visitors each year to those featuring a "lesser-known monument or historic site." According to the site, the top choice for Arizona is Grand Canyon National Park, a beautiful region that has become a tourist destination for a good reason — the views are unmatched and the hiking trails are "mind-blowing."
Here's what the site had to say about this gorgeous spot:
"Arizona is home to a grande dame of America's National Park System – the fabled Grand Canyon. It's the epic result of millions of years of tectonic plate action and, following that, millions more years of the Colorado River forcing its way through layered rock. From whichever way you approach the canyon, you'll find soaring viewpoints (the West Rim's Skywalk guarantees wobbly knees) and mind-blowing backcountry hikes. Desert View Drive spills out from Grand Canyon Village, taking over 23 lookout-studded miles and offering textbook views over the red landscape."
