There is so much natural wonder to witness in America that will inspire awe in even the most cynical explorer. The country is full of breathtaking state and national parks that give adventurers, amateur enthusiasts and experienced hikers alike, a stunning snapshot of America's natural beauty.
LoveExploring compiled a list of the "best national park" in every state, from "big-hitting" destinations to those featuring a "lesser-known monument or historic site." According to the site, the top choice for Tennessee is Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a popular destination that consistently brings in millions of explorers every year.
Here's what the site had to say about this gorgeous spot:
"Always topping the list of America's most visited national parks, the Great Smoky Mountains — which spills over the border into North Carolina — can't help but pull in the crowds. The Smokies look gorgeous all [the] time, whether hazy and morning-mist-cloaked in spring or ablaze in riotous colors for fall. And they're home to an abundance of wildlife too, from black bear to elk and deer. The Roaring Fork Motor Natural Trail is one place to go in search of it."
