Combine its massive scale with its two billion years of geological history, breathtaking views, and extraordinary options for adventure, and you have one of the most memorable trekking destinations on Earth.

Destination Overview

Yellowstone National Park was America’s first national park, and justifiably so. It is a profoundly unique geothermal wonderland filled with geysers, hot springs, mudpots, and more. It boasts the highest concentration of geothermal features in the world. However, Yellowstone’s appeal goes far beyond geysers. It is also home to pristine rivers and lakes, waterfalls, vast meadow systems, remote mountains, and rich wildlife habitat. Hiking Yellowstone combines gorgeous mountain scenery with opportunities to see bison, wolves, elk, moose, bears, and more.

Itinerary Overview

There are many ways to enjoy Yellowstone: hotel-based hiking, camping-based hiking, backpacking, horseback riding, canoeing, cycling, and more. Our recommendation for Yellowstone is a hotel-based hiking vacation that combines historic lodging with daily forays into its diverse wilderness.

Reservations at Old Faithful Snow Lodge are very competitive, so it’s best to start planning a year or more in advance.

3. Discover Waterfalls & Granite Domes in Yosemite National Park

Destination Overview

Yosemite National Park is perhaps the United States’ most recognizable park. It’s famous for colossal granite cliffs, plunging waterfalls, and high alpine wilderness. Landmarks like Half Dome, El Capitan, and Yosemite Falls define people’s perception of Yosemite, however vast backcountry areas offer lesser-known, quieter, spectacular alpine hiking.

Itinerary Overview

Yosemite is a fantastic destination for many different types of hiking and backpacking. To make the most of Yosemite’s diverse scenery and myriad of hiking options, our recommendation is a hotel-based vacation that hits the major highlights on a series of day hikes.

Sample 5-Day Itinerary

Day 1: Mist Trail to Vernal and Nevada Falls (7 miles)
Day 2: Taft Point and Sentinel Dome loop (5–8 miles)
Day 3: May Lake and Mount Hoffman (6 miles)

Reservations at The Ahwahnee are very competitive, and are reserved 366 days in advance.

4. Hike in the Alpine Wonderland of Glacier National Park

Destination Overview

Glacier National Park is often referred to as the “Crown of the Continent,” and justifiably so. Glacier’s towering, picturesque mountains in many ways feel more like the Canadian Rockies than they do like America’s Rockies. They feature jagged alpine peaks, glacial-carved valleys, turquoise mountain lakes, and over 700 miles of hiking trails. Glacier is a dream destination for a hiking vacation. 

Itinerary Overview

Like other national parks in the Rocky Mountains, Glacier is a world-renowned destination for hiking and backpacking alike. To make the most of your time in Glacier, our recommendation is a trip that combines the diverse highlights of the park into a 6-day, hotel-based hiking itinerary.

5. Experience the Best of Olympic & Mount Rainier National Parks 

Destination Overview

Olympic National Park and Mount Rainier National Park together offer one of the most exciting and scenic hiking experiences in the United States. These parks are also extremely varied, featuring many different types of ecosystems in a relatively small area. From glacier-covered volcanoes and alpine meadows to temperate rainforests and rugged Pacific coastline, these parks deliver unforgettable hikes. Combining Olympic and Rainier—each a world class destination on its own—into one grand Pacific Northwest adventure is an experience that will stick with you long after the hiking is over.

Itinerary Overview

To combine Olympic and Rainier, the best approach is a hotel-based itinerary with day hikes into the backcountry. You can start with either park, however our recommendation is to begin with Olympic due to its proximity to Seattle. The hikes will take you to rich rainforests, dramatic waterfalls, gorgeous alpine lakes, vast meadows filled with wildflowers, and wildly beautiful coastlines.

Sample 6- Day Itinerary

Day 1: Hurricane Ridge and Klahhane Ridge in Olympic (6 miles total)
Day 2: Mount Storm King (4 miles)
Day 3: Rialto Beach to Hole-in-the-Wall (4 miles)
Day 4: Burroughs Mountain in Mount Rainier (9 miles)
Day 5: Camp Muir (8 miles)
Day 6: Reflection Lakes (3 miles)

Difficulty

Moderate to Strenuous (the Mount Rainier hikes are more strenuous)

Best Time

July–September

What to Pack

• Non-cotton, layered hiking clothing
• Non-cotton hiking socks
• Hiking shoes or boots
• A warm fleece or wool layer
• Rain gear
• Comfortable day pack

• Non-hiking clothing and footwear for evenings

RECOMMENDED LODGING

Lake Crescent Lodge

Perched along the pristine shoreline of Lake Crescent, Lake Crescent Lodge is a serene, historic retreat surrounded by old-growth forest and the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Originally built in 1915, the lodge exudes historic charm, with weathered wood exteriors, a welcoming front porch, and a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere that encourages guests to slow down and take in the natural surroundings. The setting is truly the highlight—crystal-clear glacial waters framed by forested hills and misty mountain backdrops create one of the most peaceful landscapes in Olympic National Park.

RECOMMENDED LODGING

Paradise Inn

Set high on the southern slopes of Mount Rainier, Paradise Inn offers one of the most popular lodging experiences in the national park system. Built in 1916 and perched in the aptly named Paradise area, the inn sits amid sweeping alpine meadows that explode with wildflowers in early summer and snowfields that linger well into July and August. With Mount Rainier towering above, the location feels both remote and awe-inspiring, placing guests directly in the heart of Mount Rainier National Park.

Both of these lodges book up very early. It’s recommended to plan your trip 12+ months in advance.

6. Utah’s Mighty Five National Parks Hiking Tour

Destination Overview

One of the most popular regions in the United States for hiking, Utah offers adventurous visitors extensive options for exploration. Utah’s Mighty Five—Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park, and Capitol Reef National Park—showcase some of the most vibrant and colorful desert landscapes in North America. Hike through narrow slot canyons, to sandstone arches, past other-worldly hoodoos, into vast oceans of slickrock, to waterfalls and more. Southern Utah’s national parks also offer a fascinating and immersive cultural experience. As you hike, you are following in the footsteps of people who have been walking these paths for millennia, and evidence of their lives exists today. Ancient rock art, cliff dwellings, and legendary stories of their customs and lifestyles help the landscape come to life. This is especially true on Utah hiking tours with a guide who can point out sites and regale you with stories.

Itinerary Overview

Combining five national parks into one trip is an ambitious endeavor. Fortunately, in Utah, it’s absolutely possible, and in fact is a spectacular way to experience these parks. The best way to hike all five is on a hotel-based trip. We recommend flying into Grand Junction, Colorado or Moab, Utah and visiting the parks in this order: Arches, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, Bryce, and Zion.

Day 2: Hangover Loop (8 miles)

• Hiking shorts and pants

8. Great Smoky Mountains Hiking Adventure

Destination Overview

Great Smoky Mountains National Park provides exceptional hiking opportunities in the Eastern United States. This historic national park features lush forests, abundant wildlife, and one of the most biodiverse ecosystems in North America. Mist-covered mountains, cascading waterfalls, and more than 3,000 miles of waterways (creeks and rivers) define the hiking experience. 

You may be surprised by the significant elevation gains and losses of these mountains. While older and not as dramatic as the Western ranges, the Smokies are big mountains with big adventure. As you ascend to high ridges and passes, then descend into river valleys, these mountains feel every bit as challenging as the Rockies, Cascades, or Sierra Nevada.

Itinerary Overview

One of the most famous aspects of Great Smoky Mountains National Park is the iconic Appalachian Trail (AT), which cuts through the park along its high ridges. To hike this park in classic style, a backpacking segment adds a culturally significant experience. However, there are many highlights that you won’t see on the AT, so our recommended itinerary combines a 3-day backpacking trip with 3 days of hotel-based hiking.

Sample 6- Day Itinerary

Day 1–3: Gregory Bald Loop backpacking (see below)
Day 4: Ramsey Cascades (8 miles)
Day 5: Charlies Bunion (9 miles)

Rocky Mountain National Park is famous for its high alpine peaks, glacial lakes, and panoramic mountain vistas. Trails climb above tree line into dramatic landscapes shaped by glaciers and extreme weather. With more than 350 miles of trails and the highest continuous paved highway in the United States (Trail Ridge Road), Rocky offers some of the most exciting and accessible alpine hiking in the United States.

Itinerary Overview

Rocky Mountain National Park is one of the most accessible parks in the country. You can access nearly every part of the park on day hikes. For this reason, we recommend enjoying this park on a series of day hikes based at a hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. Estes has wonderful lodging and fantastic restaurants, rounding out an already memorable hiking vacation. If you prefer a lodging experience with more solitude, staying on the western side of the mountains in Grand Lake is also an option.

10. White Mountains Hiking in New Hampshire

Destination Overview
The White Mountains of New Hampshire are among the most rugged and spectacular hiking destinations in the eastern United States. Known for their steep, rocky trails; exposed ridgelines; and unpredictable weather, they offer an authentic alpine experience in the Northeast.

People are often surprised by the ruggedness and challenging nature of the trails in the White Mountains. These trails tend to go straight up the mountainside, and switchbacks are rare. Train and be prepared, because the hiking here is serious. And it’s well worth it.

Itinerary Overview
There are many ways to enjoy New Hampshire’s White Mountains. However, the most iconic way to hike these mountains is on a hut-to-hut backcountry trip. The Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) manages a series of wilderness huts that can be connected on multi-day hikes. While hut-to-hut hiking is very popular in Europe and elsewhere, New Hampshire is one of the few places in the United States where you can experience this unique form of wilderness travel.
