Take the scenic route through America’s natural treasures with our collection of drives through state parks. These peaceful, protected areas offer more than just a break from the highway—they invite you to slow down, explore winding roads, and enjoy forested landscapes, sparkling lakes, rugged cliffs, and hidden trails. Whether you’re headed to a picnic area, campground, or historic landmark, our videos showcase how to get there and what to expect along the way.

From the Smokies of Tennessee to the Ozarks of Missouri, each featured drive highlights unique access routes into state parklands across the country. You’ll see what the roads look like before you ever leave the main highway, with helpful context on road conditions, entrances, nearby amenities, and surrounding scenery. These drives are especially helpful for RV travelers, families planning day trips, and anyone who prefers to preview the journey before making plans.

We continually update our collection as we visit more parks, so whether you’re planning your next camping trip or just want to explore from the comfort of your screen, this tag is your gateway to the best drives through America’s state parks. Let the road take you to tranquil landscapes, rich biodiversity, and the perfect spots to unwind.
