4 best campgrounds on U.S. national wildlife refuges
Skip what's trendy and see the sights that are actually worth seeing
Person walking through the prairie at Wichita Mountains National Reserve

National parks are well known for their beauty and experiences, but one of the worst parts about them is the high probability of crowds, especially for more iconic attractions. That's one reason why I prefer to visit national wildlife refuges instead. While they might not be as well known, these four refuges offer top-notch experiences that rival anything you'll find at national parks.

According to the U.S. Department of Interior, our wildlife refuge system protects 571 conservation areas across the country. Even though they're not as trendy to visit, staying at these campgrounds on U.S. national wildlife refuges will be an adventure your crew won't forget.

Safety should always be a top priority when visiting national parks, and this has become even more relevant than ever as the National Park Service recently had to rescue a hiker from a near-death experience at Death Valley National Park.

Just a few days ago, a hiker found himself in a precarious position after splitting up from his travel buddy and leaving the main trail at Mosaic Canyon. When these two visitors split up, one remained on the established path, and the other decided to attempt to navigate a side canyon, believing he could reconnect with the main trail further ahead. However, as the canyon became steeper, the hiker found himself trapped, unable to move forward or descend safely.

The peregrine falcon is a powerful, fast-flying bird of prey that can reach up to 240 mph in a hunting dive. Though they can be found pretty much worldwide, they almost became extinct due to the use of DDT pesticides, which weakened their eggshells. Recovery efforts in the 1970s and the 1990s banned the use of DDT and captive breeding, which led to this beautiful bird being delisted from the U.S. endangered species list in 1999. Though these birds have recovered to a certain extent, they are still a protected species in Texas, which is why the National Park Service is closing parts of Big Bend National Park, one of Texas' gorgeous national parks, during the nesting period.

From February 1st to May 31st, temporary closures will be set in place. The closed areas will include:
