Muir Woods National Monument
This amazing 558-acre monument is located just outside San Francisco, CA. The monument is a part of California’s Golden Gate National Recreational Area; it was established in order to protect the stunning redwood forests in the Bay Area. The Muir Woods National Monument, in particular, protects trees that are up to 1,000 years old and over 250 ft tall, and you can see them by walking through the 6 miles of trails.

Crater Lake
Visit Crater Lake in Oregon and experience the beautiful deep blue waters that are the staple of this must-see destination. The volcanic crater that forms this lake is located over 1,943 ft above sea level. Swimming is available in designated areas around the lake, but the water is known for being frigid, so it might be best to just enjoy the views and the beautiful hiking trails.

Royal Gorge
Another great option for thrill seekers is the Royal Gorge, which is a relatively narrow canyon near CaƱon City, Colorado, that is home to a stretch of the Arkansas River. The Royal Gorge Bridge, which stretches over the 300 ft top of the canyon, is perfect for an afternoon of thrills as it is suspended 956 ft over the river.

Arches National Park
Plan a visit to Arches National Park and enjoy an unforgettable experience seeing over 2,000 natural sandstone arches that make up the majority of the landscape in the park. You’ll have more places to visit nearby since the Moab desert is just south of the National Park. If you don’t want to get out and hike the trails, there’s a 22-mile drive that will take you through some of the most notable structures.
