Sixty-three parks, one map
The story
Ask anyone who loves the national parks how many they've been to, and you'll get a pause, some counting on fingers, and a “wait, does Kings Canyon count separately?” (It does: there are 63.) Park'd exists to end the counting. It landed on the App Store on May 31, 2022 as a simple way to check off the parks you've seen and remember the trips that got you there.
Since then it has grown into a proper trip log, and this website into a free planning kit: a checklist you can tick without an account, a crowd calendar built from NPS visitor counts, a pass calculator, the 2026 reservation rules, and a little stamp for every park.
What the app does
- A map of the national parks to check off, plus favorites.
- Trips with photos, notes, dates, a favorite memory and places to return to.
- Stats (how many of 63, by state, by year), achievements and badges.
- Head-to-head Rankings of the parks you've visited.
- An Explore list of other National Park Service sites.
- For each park: alerts, things to do, campgrounds, news and directions.
- Optional Premium, and account sync so your parks follow you to a new phone.
What it doesn't do: trail navigation, offline maps, bookings, or logging miles and wildlife. For those, our app guide points you to the right tools. The app is in English.
