You NEED to add these US destinations to your bucket list🇺🇸🤩 We have traveled all over the US; including over 30 states and 20+ national parks. Yet it still feels like we’ve barely scratched the surface…It is such a privilege to live in a country with SO much diversity and beauty🌊🏔️🌲🏜️ Here are places we recommend visiting in the US: 🌊 Samuel H. Boardman, OR: This is a state park on the southside of the Oregon Coast Highway. It’s iconic for the arch rocks known as Natural Bridges. 🏜️Valley of Fire, NV: This is a state park that’s a pretty short drive from Las Vegas. We recommend the Fire Wave Trail and White Dome Trail. 🏔️Grand Teton NP, WY: This is honestly our favorite place in the US… it’s so hard to beat the majesty of the Tetons and the nearby town Jackson. 🌲Mt. Rainier NP, WA: The clip in the video was Tolmie Peak and it was the BEST hike we’ve ever done! But if you visit this NP and aren’t a hiker, you can still get incredible views of this mountain just simply driving through the park or visit Reflection Lake/Tipsoo Lake. 🏔️Denali, AK: Only 30% of people who visit Denali NP actually get to see this majestic mountain. But if you get a chance… fly with @k2aviation to potentially have the most spectacular views of the tallest mountain in North America. What would you add to the list?👀 #travelusa #usaroadtrip #usatravel #travel #bucketlistexperience #beautifuldestinations

8 MUST see stops along the Icefield Parkway🚗🏔️ In order as shown in the video: 📍Athabasca Falls 📍Sunwapta Falls 📍Athabasca Glacier 📍Maligne Canyon 📍Peyto Lake 📍Bow Lake 📍Maligne Lake 📍Spirit Island However, the order in which you would drive is this… 💙Bow Lake - if you’re driving from Banff to Jasper, it will be on your left-hand side and there are plenty of pull offs to stop and enjoy the view! 🐺Peyto Lake - in order to see the iconic wolf shaped lake, you must hike 1.5 miles up a steady incline. There’s a parking lot below but it fills up QUICK. 🏔️Maligne Canyon - this was a super short hike from the parking lot. It’s easy to get down to, but a bit of an incline on the way back. It’s a bit further down the icefield parkway. 🧊Athabasca Glacier - you can either do the hike to the toe of the glacier (less than a mile) or you can book a tour to actually walk on the glacier! We did both and definitely recommend getting to walk on the glacier. ☀️Sunwapta Falls - super easy stop, literally right off of the highway. There are hikes, but the viewpoint is basically in the parking lot 🏔️Athabasca Falls - another easy stop right off the side of the highway. The falls are on the left side of the road and the rock view point is on the right side. It’s pretty easy to find! 🩵Maligne Lake - this stop is in Jasper NP, and it’s a stunning lake! We actually did a boat tour but you can also kayak to…. 🛶Spirit Island- you can’t come to Jasper NP and not see the iconic spirit island. The only way here is by a boat tour or to kayak. Though kayaking would take ALL day. We do regret not kayaking it though, so I guess we will have to go back 😉 Which stop is your favorite?👀 #icefieldparkway #roadtrip #canadaroadtrip #banffnationalpark #jaspernationalpark #travel #travelcouple #adventure #Outdoors #Hiking
