Congaree National Park

We visited Congaree National Park in South Carolina, one of the least-visited parks.

There isn’t a huge amount there; it’s basically one visitor center, a couple of primitive campgrounds, a boardwalk trail, some back country trails, and a bunch of wilderness.

Here’s a map; click or tap to interact with it on the NPS site:
