- Over the past 10 years, I’ve embarked on solo journeys to 59 out of the 63 major National Parks.
- First-time travelers often underestimate the importance of making reservations in advance.
- It’s crucial for visitors to show respect for the land, wildlife, and their own physical limits.
Nearly a decade ago, an idea struck me in the middle of the night—I must embark on a solo journey to the Grand Canyon, the first stop on my multi-year personal quest.
With little knowledge, I hopped in the car and headed southwest, driven only by an inexplicable urge to go.
I packed my backpack and water bottle, but failed to bring any food, spending days exploring the park. It was only later that I realized how ill-equipped I was for the adventure.
Since that initial trip, I have journeyed solo to 59 out of the 63 major National Parks, as well as countless other National Park Service sites, covering all 50 US States.
I cannot stress enough how much I have learned during these travels. Travel serves as a profound teacher, and the complexities of solo female travel have kept me on my toes.
Based on my experiences, I am acutely aware of what it takes to have a successful National Park journey. Here is my advice for first-time travelers to avoid common mistakes.
