TRAVELER’S GUIDE
VISIT AMERICA’S MOST STUNNING NATIONAL PARKS ONBOARD AMTRAK WITH
AMTRAK VACATIONS
Amtrak trains journey along a 21,000-mile rail system across 46 states to more than 500 different destinations, including some of the country’s most majestic national parks.
When you travel aboard Amtrak’s iconic train routes such as the Empire Builder, California Zephyr,
Coast Starlight and Southwest Chief to visit these natural wonders, you will sweep through scenery that is sure to astound you. Desert landscapes, awe-inspiring mountain ranges, surreal sunsets and sunrises, lush forests, vast plains and states and cities you probably would never see except by train are just a handful of the views you will get to enjoy while onboard en route to your destination.
While traveling to the national parks, sit back and relax knowing that Amtrak has set a new standard of travel with several cleaning, contact-free and convenience measures
implemented into every part of the journey — from the time of booking to the moment of arrival. Travelers and employees are required to wear a face mask throughout their journey (face masks can be removed on board when traveling in a private room with the door closed), bookings have been limited to allow physical distancing onboard and all trains are equipped with an onboard filtration system with an ongoing fresh air exchange every four to five minutes.
Regardless of where you choose to begin and end these popular national park rail journeys, you can expect to create memories that will be talked about for years to come.
