미국 국립공원 총정리

미국에는 2021년 기준 총 63개의 국립공원이 있다. 이중 대부분은 록키 산맥 서쪽에 위치하고 있으며 국립공원에 대한 자료는 국립공원 서비스 웹사이트를 통해 제공된다. 국립공원은 대부분 개인 입장료나 주차료 (차, 오토바이)를 내고 입장을 하며 캠핑을 이용한다면 추가 비용이 발생한다. 국립공원을 자주 이용한다면 연 멤버쉽 또는 시니어의 경우 평생 멤버쉽을 USGA 스토어를 통해 구입하면 무료 입장을 할수 있다. 또한, 미국 군을 제대하거나 현역의 경우 무료 멤버쉽을 이용할수 있고 핸디켑을 가지고 있을 경우 $10 에 멤버쉽를 구할수 있다.

입장료는 국립공원마다 조금씩 다르며 가격표는 각 사이트 가격 페이지을 참조 하면 된다. 무료입장이 가능한 국립공원도 있으니 가격표를 잘 참조하기 바란다. 일반인의 경우 연멤버쉽을 이용하면 ($80/년) 무료 입장을 할수 있다. 멤버쉽을 이용하면 캠핑을 할경우 할인을 받을수 있다. 하지만, 날씨나 계절에 따라 입장이 불가한 날짜가 있을수 있으니 아래 사이트를 참조하여 오픈 시즌에 가야 한다. 원할 경우 온라인으로 입장 패스를 미리 구입해 갈수도 있지만 미리 산다고 할인이 되는것은 아니다. 하지만, 캠핑을 준비한다면 예약은 필수다. 그럼, 미국에 있는 63개의 국립공원을 알아보자. 국립공원중 톱10에 랭크된 파크는 노랑색으로 하이라이트 하였다.

미국내 캠핑이나 차박을 희망한다면 미국 국립공원만한 곳이 없다. 주립공원이나 사립 캠프그라운드 (KOA, etc.)에 비해 시설도 잘 되어 있을 뿐만 아니라 가격도 저렴하기 때문이다. 하지만, 가격에 비해 시설이 좋다면 손님이 몰리는 법이라 학생들 방학기간 (봄, 여름, 겨울)에는 예약이 어려울수 있다. 웹사이트를 통해 수시로 체크해 보고 예약을 하면 된다. 국립공원에 따라 전 사이트를 인터넷으로 예약 가능한곳 2/3 또는 50%만 예약 가능한곳이 있다. 장소에 따라 FCFS (First Come First Server) 할수 있는 곳이 있으니 예약을 못했더라면 전화로 남은 사이트가 있는지 체크해보고 들러보는것도 좋을듯 하다. 그럼, 미국내 있는 63개의 국립공원을 알아보자.
