PARKS LIST
TLDR: A scratch-off Adventure Bucket List turns the person who's always said we should do a park trip into the person who can't stop talking about the next one. Here's why.
It's 50 parks, not more stuff
Most gifts add to a pile. This one fills the road-trip calendar. You're giving 50 iconic parks across 28 states: Yellowstone, Yosemite, Zion, Acadia, and the ones they've always talked about visiting. One box. A lifetime of trips.
It solves the "we should do a park trip someday" problem
Retirees, couples, and anyone who's always said someday. You can't gift them another hoodie. You can give them 50 parks across 28 states and a reason to finally pack the car.
Zero planning required (we picked the 50 parks)
Timed entry, which parks to visit, how many days to spend. We've done the curating. Scratch a card and instantly know the park, the best season, and how long to stay. Then just go.
The scratch-off reveal beats picking a park
There's a reason people film themselves scratching these. You don't pick the park, the card does. It turns the which-park debate into the most fun part of planning the road trip.
Icons take out the guesswork on every park
Each card shows the best season and how many days to spend, so you can pick a long weekend or a full park vacation before you scratch. No surprises you can't handle. Only parks you'll love.
How It Works
1. Pick A Park
Plan a road trip around a region, or scratch a card when you have a long weekend. 50 parks across 28 states.
Mix & match 2+ and save up to 20%
One parks list for them, a state list for the trip you're taking. Bundle any two or more bucket lists and save up to 20% with free shipping. The easiest way to turn one gift into a lifetime of park trips.
Gift The Parks ListIt works for scenic drives and summit days
Scenic drives and overlooks, short walks and visitor centers, or bigger outdoor adventures. Parks range from accessible weekends to full-on epics, so the list fits the traveler, not the other way around.
It keeps giving all year long
A hoodie lasts a season. A gift card gets spent. Fifty scratch-off parks last years of road trips, and every time they pull into a new park they think of the person who sent them.
Gift with confidence: free 30-day exchanges
Thought they wanted Yosemite when they'd rather start closer to home? No problem. Every list comes with free 30-day exchanges.
5,000+ five-star reviews don't lie

- KZKatharina Z.Verified BuyerReviewingDetroit Adventure Bucket ListI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars3 days agoFirst card was already a hit
I gave this as a birthday gift to my husband, and it turned out to be such a fun experience! We told our friends about it, and they wanted to join in on the fun too. Our first card revealed a Tiki Boat Tour, and we all had an amazing time. We loved it so much that we’re already talking about making it a tradition and doing it again next year. We can’t wait to see what the other cards have in store!
