North Carolina State Parks -- A Niche Guide

Product Description
Boasting more than 50 parks and natural and recreation areas, North Carolina's state park system offers something for everyone. Twelve million people seek sanctuary in the parks' diverse natural areas every year and learn about cultural and natural history from interpretive rangers. The state's scenic beauty is reflected in the varied park system holdings, which range from ancient Mount Mitchell to the wind-scoured dunes of Jockey's Ridge. As new parks are created and existing parks increase in size, the park system continually offers new opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts. North Carolina State Parks: A Niche Guide connects people to parks and is the essential companion for out-of-state visitors and North Carolinians alike. If you are interested in natural and cultural history, hiking, photography, birding, paddling, camping, or just an outing with the family, the portable full-color guidebook provides key travel information that will make every park visit educational, enjoyable, and safe.
