A List of Every State & National Park in Utah
A List of Every State & National Park in Utah
Did you know that Utah has the third most national parks of all 50 states? The Beehive State houses five total national parks (behind Alaska and California who both have eight). The Utah tourism industry is one of the most robust in the nation and this has much to do with the favoritism that Mother Nature seems to have bestowed on this incredible area. Virtually every single area of this beautiful state is ripe with natural wonders so it isn’t a surprise that there are so many preserved locations within its boundaries. Zion National Park is certainly the most visited of Utah’s Mighty Five, but did you also know that Utah has 43 state parks? Take a look at the comprehensive list below of national and state parks and take note of which ones you have visited.
