Travel tip: The most beautiful national park in USA

Founded in 1872, Yellowstone National Park in the Rocky Mountains (Wyoming) is the oldest national park in the world - and one of the most visited: the park, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has around 4 million guests every year. It covers an area of almost 9,000 square kilometers and is best known for its numerous geysers and hot springs as well as its wildlife. The area of Yellowstone National Park, named after the river of the same name, is located at an altitude of between 1,600 and 3,400 meters above sea level in the caldera of a former supervolcano.
