In my previous articles, I have discussed some unique trip options in order to demonstrate the versatility of Escape Camper Vans. However, in this article, I will discuss the low-hanging fruit, the tried-and-true National Park trip.  At the end of the day, a popular destination is popular for a reason. The National Park trips discussed below are so well known because they offer some of the most beautiful scenery in the entire Country. A long-drawn-out circuitous trip may not be for everyone; therefore, I have put together a short route and a long route. Both provide phenomenal, one-of-a-kind experiences for your next Campervan trip.   

Grand Circle Tour: Suggested Time 10-14 Days: 

For campers that have some PTO saved up, the Grand Circle provides an incredible opportunity to explore six different National Parks (Zion, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Arches, Canyonlands, and Grand Canyon) throughout the State of Utah. At 1,500 miles this trip requires a great deal of time and driving. Fortunately, Escape Campervan has recently opened a new depot in Salt Lake City. This means that campers will now have the advantage of taking their hotel with them, greatly increasing the practicality and approachability of this trip. campers who make the necessary time commitment will be rewarded with a vast and diverse array of destinations. Each Park possesses entirely unique features and provides a unique experience. Zion, the first National Park in Utah, hosts a singular array of plants and animals that cannot be found anywhere else in the World.  Zion also provides amazing views of sandstone cliffs that appear in a dazzling array of colors including cream, pink, and red. Bryce Canyon National Park is home to the world’s largest array of Hoodoos (irregular rock columns). Capitol Reef National Park provides onlookers the unique opportunity to observe the “Water Pocket” an immense geological wrinkle that extends for almost 100 miles. True to its name, Arches National Park is full of over 2,000 natural rock arches that seem to defy belief. Canyonlands provide an opportunity to explore distinct canyon formations carved out by the Colorado River. Finally, Grand Canyon National Park, located in Northern Arizona, is, as expected, quite grand and worthy of a stop. Finally, Monument Valley, aside from serving as the set for the hit drama “Westworld,” possesses stunning sandstone heights and is one of the most photographed locations in the world.
