These are tough times. In light of the spread of COVID-19, those of us who had fantastic national park plans this spring are now sitting at home, imagining all the experiences we might have had had we been able to travel. Some of us hit the road anyway and are trying to find out what is open and closed in our national parks. All these closures are a moving target these days.
The National Park Service is coordinating with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), state and local public health authorities and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to make its decisions on what to keep open or to close on a daily basis.
Here is information on major parks we cover and the resources you can use to find out more about what each national park is doing to take COVID-19 precautions. In the meanwhile, we hope you stay healthy. It’s hard to stay away from the parks, especially as the weather starts to warm, but we urge you to do what we’re doing right now: dream now and travel later. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook and read our weekly enewsletters to get inspired and stay in touch with the places you care so much about.
