Memories that will last a lifetime
When was the last time you saw something so amazing that you knew you’d never forget it? That is the kind of experience you get when you visit a U.S. National Park. These areas are home to some of the most unique and diverse landscapes in the world. They include mammoth cave systems, giant glaciers, volcanoes and jagged cliffs cut from rivers that flowed by for millions of years. But they are also home to many attractions you may not expect. For instance, some national parks are protected lands where archeologists have found dinosaur bones and fossils that belong to ancestors of modern-day animals like rhinos and horses. There is also a park in a Michigan Great Lake where you can cold-water dive to see dozens of sunken ships. These are just a few of the experiences you could have if you plan a trip to one of the many National Park Service lands across our great nation.

History comes to life
Throughout history, American soldiers have sacrificed so much for our freedoms. As Americans, the least we can do is pay respect to their memories and honor their sacrifices. The nation’s capital is just one of the many places in our homeland where we can do just that. Millions of visitors every year travel to Washington, D.C., to see presidential monuments and the World War II Memorial on the National Mall. Inside this guide, we show you some of the most prestigious attractions to see in the District of Columbia.

We also head to the battlefields where soldiers literally fought for our freedoms. The Yorktown Battlefield in Virginia is one of these sites explored in this guide. We also visit a historic district in Birmingham, Ala., where Dr. Martin Luther King led the charge for civil rights for every American.

I’m interested in National parks
I havent been yet but I think Zion is larger than 229 square feet.
Although, I’m writing this. I’m not computer literate. Don’t have printer. any way to get a hard copy of any of these guides?
Thanks for reaching out, John. We are sorry to inform you that we are no longer offering print magazines. We now focus on digital content and have shifted our resources and energy to creating more engaging and interactive experiences online. We believe this is the best way to reach our readers and provide them with the relevant content they are looking for.
Just got back from Utah and Arizona, visiting many of the national parks, as well as smaller ones along the way. We’re already planning more national park trips, but would love a hard copy of the booklet, because as we learned on our trip last month, there are many many places that don’t have cell service. What is meant by “primary member”? I believe I may be the primary member because I had my membership first and then added my daughter and grandson. Can one of them get a hardcopy?
Hello Melanie, we no longer offer printed copies of Your AAA. I have attached the guide link. https://magazine.northeast.aaa.com/guides/102-national-park-attractions/# Please feel free to download and print at your convenience. Also, the primary member is the person who established the AAA Membership. Hope this helps! – Aleshi
What happened to the atlas?
Hello Charles, we still carry road atlases. You’ll hear from someone from our branch team to assist. Thank you – Aleshi
Has AAA ever done a guide to Ball Parks? I know a number of people who make these destinations. If it included maps, hotels at different levels and even camping availability in the area.
Hi Jonathan, thanks for your question! We have a baseball guide that you might like. Check it out here: AAA.com/Baseball. -Marisa
I am not happy with not being able to get state travel guides even though my annual fee is high!!!
Hi Paul and thanks for reading Your AAA Network. We hope you can find the information you need on our national AAA Travel Guides page, which can be found at https://www.aaa.com/travelguides/
Can’t wait to travel
I’m interested in a Road Trip from San Francisco to the Redwoods National Forest in California. Do you have a guide for that? I’m thinking of travelling in January 2022
Hi Louise!
That sounds like an amazing trip! We have a digital travel guide to the Redwood National and State Parks; you can find it here.
Thanks so much for reading, and happy travels!
