Here at Time Out, we love national parks and we love trains. But how could we combine the two to make the most extraordinary trip? Here it is: the list of trains you can take to national parks as well as a few excursion rides you can do while inside the park. What could be better than leaving the car behind and just kicking back and relaxing while the conductor brings you to a beautiful natural spot? Exploring the park without a car is a great idea. Even if youre not a hiker, its a great way to ensure that you do some slow, extra patient walks and give Mother Nature your full attention (and while were at it, park that phone, too). Enjoy your window seat view and leave a smaller carbon footprint to boot!
