National Park Glamping Expansion

May 29, 2026

National Park travel continues to rank high on bucket lists. We are glad to see that Backroads is expanding its investment in luxury outdoor adventures through an enhanced partnership with Under Canvas. These safari-style tent accommodations combine the beauty of the great outdoors with the comforts of upscale lodging. New 2026 glamping experiences will feature immersive stays near Yellowstone, Glacier National Park, and Utah’s Arches National Park, where your family can sleep under the stars, gather around campfires, and enjoy chef-prepared meals all without sacrificing comfort. The trips offer a thoughtful balance of adventure and relaxation, with a range of activity levels to explore at your own pace. They build in multiple activity levels each day, so families can choose easier or more challenging options. Their guides and support vans also make the trips accessible for travelers who want active experiences without feeling intimidated. These trips are seasonal, mostly running late spring through early fall.
