I've been to all 63 major national parks. These are the 8 I recommend visiting in the winter.
"Winter can sometimes be a challenging time to visit national parks due to weather and logistical considerations. Although some parks are definitely beautiful in the snow and cold, many are subject to road and trail closures with limited access during the winter months (or are even outright inaccessible). However, after visiting all 63 US national parks solo - many of them several times in different seasons - I have a few favorites that I enjoy visiting in the winter months."
"Winter can sometimes be a challenging time to visit national parks due to weather and logistical considerations. Parks like Joshua Tree, Death Valley, and Saguaro have milder temperatures in the winter months. Dry Tortugas and Virgin Islands National Park are great if you're craving a tropical getaway. These eight parks stand out because they remain open and accessible, with winter temperatures that make hiking, sightseeing, and exploring more enjoyable."
