20 Best National Parks in the U.S.

"This island park combines active volcanoes with rainforests, otherworldly lava fields, and exotic tropical flora across a vast landscape of trails. Highlights include viewing the active peaks Mauna Loa and Kīlauea, driving the Chain of Craters Road to the coastline, hiking the Kahuku Unit, and walking through native forest on the Kīpukapuaulu Trail." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.
