Utah is home to some of the most popular, picturesque National Parks in the United States. The famous arches of Arches National Park are known worldwide, and the iconic slot canyons of Zion National Park are those of an adventurer’s dream. But there’s more to the state’s park system than it’s 5 National Parks.
Utah is home to 6 National Monuments, 1 National Recreation Area, and 1 National Historical Park on top of its iconic National Parks. Plus multiple National Historic Trails run through the Beehive State. National Park Diaries took a look at the 13 sites inside Utah (leaving out the National Historic Trails), exploring their history, geology, and remarkable terrain.
