The Best Summer Camping Spots in the USA

June 23, 2012 by Mikel Erdman

Grand Canyon SkywalkSummer is on its way and the warm weather means that thousands of families across the USA will be bringing out their tents, tarps, folding chairs, camping stoves, fishing rods, and sleeping bags.

The summer camping holiday is somewhat of an American family tradition which is celebrated on every long weekend and school break of the year.

There is nothing quite like the experience of eating hot dogs roasted over an open fire, making smores, telling ghost stories and falling asleep in the peaceful silence of the forest.

Camping is a great way to spend a holiday with your family. Camping sites are cheaper than motels, you can cook your own food and the kids will love playing in the forest and swimming in the lake.

Camping can also be a romantic way to spend a getaway with your sweetheart, as you take scenic walks together and cuddle by a roaring fire.

If you are planning on taking a camping trip this year, here are some of the very best camping spots in the USA where you can enjoy the best of the outdoors:

Yosemite National Park, California

This rugged and stunning wilderness area is special because it was one of the first wilderness parks in the USA.

It is over 1200 square miles of ancient forests, lush green meadows, deep valleys and roaring waterfalls.

Within the park there are thirteen different campgrounds to choose from, most of which need to be reserved in advance, so plan your holiday ahead of time in order to enjoy this amazing area of natural beauty.

Acadia National Park, Maine

If you are looking to enjoy some of the scenic beauty of the East Coast, you can visit this gorgeous area located on an island just south of Ellsworth, Maine.

It is a perfect spot for fishing and the views of the ocean from the rocky shoreline will take your breath away.

There are also plenty of biking trails, hiking routes and even sea-cliff rock climbing.

Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona

When it comes to iconic camping spots in the USA, it would be wrong not to mention the famous Grand Canyon National Park.

This is one of America’s most popular vacation destinations and the sheer magnificence and size of the canyon has to be seen to be believed.

While you are camping at one of the many campsites in the area, you can go on a river rafting adventure or take a donkey tour down to the bottom of the canyon.

These are just a few of the most popular camping areas in the USA.

No matter where you camp, be sure that you respect the environment; clean up after yourself and don’t leave anything in the campsite after you leave.

That way these natural areas can remain beautiful and can be enjoyed for many generations to come.
