Visiting the United States in May is like a walk in the park
May is a great time to dust off the hiking boots if you're looking to check a few national parks off the bucket list. Escape the large summertime crowds by visiting Yosemite, Yellowstone, and the Grand Canyon during shoulder season. Wander desert parks like Joshua Tree and Zion without the sky-high temperatures of July and August. With cool nights and pleasantly warm days, perfect for exploring the wonderfully unique landscapes, May is an ideal time for a National Park adventure.
