Cloudland Canyon is located near the northern end of Lookout Mountain, it is about 2 hours drive north of Atlanta (mainly on highway 75) , and this park is really beautiful, offering some really nice hikes and peaceful atmosphere.  There are few trails, while visiting i walked the Waterfall Trail and loved it,very easy walk and great views, till you get to the end where you see the waterfalls – really nice.

Bryce canyon is one of my favorite national parks, only because it is so unique, it is like nothing you ever seen.

The park located in the south-west of Utah, not too far away from Las Vegas. When arriving to the park you should leave your car at the parking area and use the public shuttle which drive through all the attractions of the park, try to get off on the main view point and choose some hikes to explore this amazing park.

Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Monument in Colorado  is a really beautiful spot. The Canyon is really  deep and so narrow its just amazing, in some of the viewpoints you cant even see the river running in it. I visited both rims and even though the southern is more touristic and more developed for visitors, I think the views were better from the north rim.

This is probably one of the most beautiful canyon (or slot canyon)  you will ever see, since it is so unique.  this is a very narrow canyon all walls were shaped by wind and you can actually see it on the amazing orange walls of the canyon. Around noon, when sun is just above, there are some great lightning for some photography opportunities.

Antelope Canyon is on the Navajo reservation / highway 98.
