As summer comes to an end, one might think the best season to visit National Parks has passed. At Equal-i-zer® Hitch, we believe “peak season” begins in the fall. As a company who values keeping your trailer and family safe on the road, we recommend towing your Equal-i-zer Hitch to these six National Parks in the fall for views you will never forget.

1. Shenandoah National Park

Shenandoah National Park, located 75 miles outside of Washington D.C., is not only known for its incredible waterfalls and vast wildflower fields, but its fabulous fall colors. Starting in September, Shenandoah’s 200,000 acres of oak trees transform into a fall wonderland. Visitors from all over the world flock to Washington precisely for this transformation. Don’t worry about scoring a crowded hotel, just tow your trailer there with a FLASH Ball Mount!

2. Arcadia National Park

Arcadia National Park, also known as the Crown Jewel of the North Atlantic Coast, is one of Maine’s most visited locations. Located on the coast, this incredible National Park has some of the most gorgeous scenic views. In the fall, Arcadia becomes a beautiful fall landscape. Take a drive-up Cadillac Summit Road or hike the Beehive Loop trail to get stunning lake views. And when you’ve had your fill, hit the road for the next national park on the list.

3. Grand Teton National Park

Fall in Grand Teton National Park is sight worth waiting for. With the Teton mountains as a backdrop, the Aspen trees in the valley turn shades of gold, red, orange, and yellow, creating beautiful views. As the heat of summer moves into fall, so do all the animals living in Tetons. If you time your trip to this incredible National Park correctly, you might just catch elk or bison migrating for winter. Looking for an Equal-i-zer Hitch? Find a Dealer Here.

4. Congaree National Park

Deep in the bottomland hardwood forest in South Carolina, is Congaree National Park. Visiting in the fall is highly recommended, as the fall foliage is a sight to be seen. Hike the trails to spectacular viewpoints, rent a canoe and paddle down Cedar Creek, or walk down the popular boardwalks, either way, fall colors will be at every turn. Either way, when you tire from the trails you’ll be happy to know your home on the road is there waiting for you.

5. Great Smokey Mountains National Park

Great Smokey Mountains National Park in Tennessee is one of the most visited National Parks in the country. The normally green birch trees begin to yellow, and huckleberry bushes turn bright red. Take a drive-up Blue Ridge Parkway to see the fall colors at 4,000 feet. If you’re driving the hills and winding roads, you’ll need a weight distribution hitch you can count on!

6. Zion National Park

While all of Utah experiences fall, Zion National Park, located in Southern Utah, is one of the most popular places to see different shades of orange, red, and yellow against red rock. By visiting this National Park in the fall, not only do you get to experience beautiful fall scenery, but you will also have cooler weather, run into fewer people, and the chance of seeing wildlife is higher. Angel’s Landing, Zion’s most popular hike, has one of the best scenic views to take in the entire fall valley.
