Welcome to the ultimate national parks board game experience. To create this enhanced edition of the classic game Parks, we took a close look at every possible detail to ensure that every move, every action, and every step brought the excitement of the U.S. National Parks to players like never before.

This expanded, enhanced second edition of the best-selling game features all-new illustrations by artists Josh Emrich and Lisk Feng, offers new gameplay elements from designer Henry Audubon, and incorporates the most interesting ideas from each of the Parks games and expansions: the additional camping module from Parks: Nightfall, the animal integrations from Parks: Wildlife, and a comprehensive selection of players’ favorite gear, challenges, and mechanics from the five-year history of Parks (along with some new surprises).

Together, we reimagined the trail, with a new way to navigate the game board together or play solo. We stuffed the backpack with new features and bonuses to help you along the path. And for the first time ever, that path now takes you to all 63 U.S. National Parks, including sites that earned a National Park designation in the years since our first printing.

Iconic Locations Brought to Life

Stand before the majesty of Half Dome in Yosemite. Spot alligators beneath the waters of Everglades. Feel the heat of Hawai’i Volcanoes. View a canopy of stars in the night skies over Arches. Take it all in.

Our team has spent hundreds of hours carefully researching the flora and fauna, natural landscapes, and unique features of each of these beloved sites.

Every card features unique art that depicts real scenes from each park – the scampering javelinas of Guadalupe Mountains, the feathery white valerians of Mount Rainier, the dripping stalactites of Mammoth Cave, the shimmering coral reefs of Dry Tortugas. 

With 63 diverse parks and distinct facts on each card, the stories of these natural treasures reveal unexpected new wonders with each play.
