EVERGLADES NATIONAL PARK
The exceptional variety of its water habitats has
made it a sanctuary for a large number of birds
and reptiles
West Indian manatee and American crocodile are
one of the threatened species living there.
The busiest season for visitors is from December
to March, when temperatures are lowest and
mosquitoes are least active. During the ‘mosquito
season‘ it can be a really unpleasant experience.
GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK
The Grand Canyon is one of the Seven Natural
Wonders of the World
It was formed during 6 million years of geologic
activity and erosion by the Colorado River
The Grand Canyon, as the course of the Colorado
River twists through it, is 277 miles in length.
You can find there rattlesnakes of pink colour so
it is not easy to spot them on the reddish dirt of
the canyon.

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK
Yosemite is internationally recognized for its
spectacular granite cliffs, waterfalls,
clear streams, Giant Sequoia groves, and biological
diversity and cirque lakes. It lies in the heart of
California.
The word “Yosemite“ comes from the Miwok word for
the Yohemite tribe that lived there and translates to
“They are killers“
Abraham Lincoln signed a bill to protect Yosemite
Valley years before it became a national park (1890)
YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK
Yellowstone contains half of all the world's
known geothermal features, with more than
10,000 examples.
Native Americans have lived in the Yellowstone
region for at least 11,000 years
The Yellowstone fires of 1988 together formed
the largest wildfire in the recorded history of the
park. On August 20, during the so called Black
Saturday more than 610 km2 of the park
burned to the ground.
