3 ESSENTIAL NATIONAL PARKS ROAD TRIPS
To Hot Springs, AR
Start From: Little Rock. Distance: 55 miles
A relaxing spa getaway or an outdoor adventure? Go for both on this road trip to one of America’s most underrated parks. As you head out of Little Rock, stop at civil rights landmark Little Rock Central High School National Historic Site, before continuing on to the former spa town of Hot Springs. There you’ll find Bathhouse Row, home to Roman-style bathhouses and steam caves, and a museum chronicling the historic street.
Also of note is the Superior Bathhouse Brewery, the only brewery located in a national park, where beers are made from mineral-rich thermal spring water. Stay right in the action at The Waters Hot Springs hotel. The next morning, round off your trip with a stroll around the scenic Lake Hamilton.

To White Sands, NM
Start from: Albuquerque. Distance: 290 miles
White Sands dazzles with its endless, undulating rippled white sand dunes, the world’s largest gypsum dune field, and the park’s 16-mile Dunes Drive loop and dune sledding make it especially family-friendly. On the way from Albuquerque, take I-25 for fascinating stop-offs in Bosque del Apache Wildlife Refuge, Fort Craig, the town of Truth or Consequences, and the Hatch Chile Market. Near the park, the Three Rivers Petroglyph Site is also worth a visit.
