What national parks are in California?

I’ve just moved to California for work, and I’d love to get out and explore some of the outdoors and the national parks the state has to offer. What parks are in California?

There are nine national parks in
California
to check out:
  • Joshua Tree National Park
  • Yosemite National Park
  • Redwood National Park
  • Death Valley National Park
  • Channel Islands National Park
  • Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park
  • Pinnacles National Park
  • Lassen Volcanic National Park
  • Point Reyes National Seashore
Death Valley is the largest and hottest of the bunch—bordering on one of the most unfathomable places in California. The park spans more than 3.3 million acres covered with mountain-sized sand dunes, deep salt flats, mysterious singing rocks, and colorful sandstone canyons. It’s the hottest and driest place in the country, so come prepared if you’re visiting in the summer.
Joshua Tree National Park brims with a unique charm you won’t find in any other park. It’s loaded with boulders and buttresses, rugged mountains, ruins, desert plains, and some of the most unique trees in the world, which are actually yucca. It’s a pretty weird place. And when the sun goes down, the sunsets and stars are like nothing you’ve ever seen.
With miles of desert, you wouldn’t want to get stuck without help. But if you’re making the trek to one of California’s national parks, make sure you’ve packed a solid car insurance plan that protects you along the drive. Whether it’s full coverage or adding
towing and labor
