We lived in a van for seven days, and drove it to the Mighty Five, Monument Valley and The Grand Canyon! Here's our COMPLETE GUIDE to the Mighty Five national parks in Utah plus the Grand Canyon.
In this video, we cover what is the mighty five, where to stay, mighty five itineraries, and our thoughts on this trip. We wanted this video to give as much information as possible so we put a lot of time into it, but if you still have questions please feel free to reach out. We stay at five different campsites throughout this trip ranging from privately owned campsites to campsites owned by the national park system. We drove 1,200+ miles in this trip and crossed three new states off our list. We have currently been to 37 different states in the US now!
The national parks mentioned in this video are Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Capitol Reef National Park, Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park and Grand Canyon National Park. We also talk about other places like Monument Valley and where to find Navajo Tacos! We have been to 12 of the national parks in the United States, but unfortunately didn't vlog any of them. We love the national park system in the United States and can't wait to share more of our love for them with you!
We did this trip in an Escape Campervan which is a converted Ford Transit Connect. The video after this video will be our full review of Escape Campervans so consider subscribing so you don't miss that video. Once it's published I will update this description!
