(EMAILWIRE.COM, July 19, 2010 ) HOUGHTON, Mich.-While all of the U.S. national parks offer something special, the end of summer and fall is the perfect time to visit some of the more unique options. With children back in school, fall provides both fewer folks . At the end of summer head to the northwestern corner of Lake Superior to Isle Royale National Park. With binoculars at the ready, watch migratory birds head south and listen for the cry of the loon and gray wolf. Days can be spent enjoying the views from Isle Royale Lighthouse, on the lake trying to catch a big one on a fishing charter, or learning or learning about the natural history of the park on ranger-led hikes. Relax over dinner at the Greenstone Grill at the parkÂ’s premiere accommodations, Rock Harbor Lodge. DonÂ’t wait too long, the lodge and park close in mid-September ahead of the areaÂ’s extreme winter weather. KentuckyÂ’s Mammoth Cave National Park boasts the longest explored caves in the world, but above ground trails for hiking and horseback riding are lined with an array of reds and golds. As oak and hickory leaves slowly fade from green to orange and yellow visitors can inhale the crisp autumn air. Visitors can take a kayak or canoe down the Green and Nolin Rivers or search the trails for hidden waterfalls. After spending the day taking in the colors or exploring the history and natural wonders of the caves, guests can retire to one of Mammoth Cave HotelÂ’s quaint cottages or lodge rooms. Spend this fall in our nationÂ’s true treasures, the national parks, and remember the beauty and enchantment our country offers.
