Frequently asked questions

How many national parks are there in the United States?

There are 63 congressionally designated national parks managed by the National Park Service. (The NPS manages over 400 units in total, but most are monuments, historic sites, seashores and other designations.)

Which state has the most national parks?

California has the most with 9 national parks, followed by Alaska with 8. Utah has 5, and Colorado has 4.

Do all states have a national park?

No. Only 30 states contain at least one of the 63 official national parks. States like Delaware, Louisiana and Alabama have National Park Service sites (historic parks, seashores, preserves), but no designated "National Park".

Are dogs allowed in national parks?

Usually yes, but only in limited areas. Pets are typically restricted to developed areas, roads and campgrounds, on a leash no longer than 6 feet. Most parks do not allow pets on trails or in the backcountry. Each park page on this site summarizes the official pet policy.
