Top 10 most visited national parks

Since the U.S. National Park Service (NPS) started keeping records in 1904, its mountain landscapes, seaside wildernesses, and high desert acres have registered more than 16 billion visits. Some of the best known parks experienced record crowds in 2023. Straddling the border between North Carolina and Tennessee, Great Smoky Mountains National Park passed 13 million recreation visits; more than 3 million people took in the plant- and rock formation-filled desertscape of California’s Joshua Tree National Park.

Visitors are drawn to the vastness and variety of “America’s best idea.” From sea to shining sea (as well as in the wilds of Alaska and Hawaii), the NPS’s 85 million acres encompass 150,000 miles of rivers and streams and over 21,000 miles of trails. 

(Go wild, and skip the crowds, at these 7 spectacular parks.)

These 10 parks are the superstars of the system, but they offer just a glimpse of the variety to be found in the 429 park units (including 63 national parks) of the NPS.

10. Olympic National ParkIn 2023, 2,947,503 people visited Washington State’s Olympic National Park. The park comprises 922,651 acres of wild Pacific coast (pictured), rugged glacier-capped mountains, and old-growth temperate rain forest.

8. Grand Teton National ParkThe peaks of the Teton Range, regal and imposing, soar nearly 7,000 feet above the Wyoming valley floor, making them some of the boldest geological statements in the Rockies. Grand Teton National Park’s jewel-like lakes, blue and white glaciers, and naked granite pinnacles enticed 3,417,106 visitors in 2023.

7. Acadia National ParkSea and mountains meet at Acadia National Park in Maine, which saw 3,879,890 people visit in 2023. Most of the park is on Mount Desert Island, a patchwork of parkland, private property, and waterside villages.

6. Yosemite National Park“No temple made with human hands can compete with Yosemite,” wrote John Muir, whose crusading led to the creation of California’s Yosemite National Park in 1890. Nearly 4 million visitors came to this temple of granite cliffs and towering waterfalls in 2023. Most spent time in Yosemite Valley, a mile-wide, seven-mile-long canyon that was cut by a river and then widened and deepened by glacial action.

The vast reserve—covering 2.2 million acres in Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana—has craggy peaks, explosive geysers, alpine lakes, deep forests, and a wealth of wild animals. The stars are bison, bears, sheep, moose, and wolves.

1. Great Smoky Mountains National ParkMore than 13 million visitors went to Great Smoky Mountains National Park in 2023.
