<p class="wp-block-paragraph">31 Tage, 4 Bundesstaaten, 8 National Parks (zzgl ein paar kleinerer, wie z.B. in San Francisco der Fort) und 3401 Meilen (5473 km) – das war unsere Tour im Cruise America C25 RV. Wir haben das Wohnmobil in San Francisco mit nur 4.756 Meilen auf dem Tacho übernommen; es war fast neuwertig. Nach vielen negativen Berichten über den Zustand der Miet-RVs hatten wir uns auf das Schlimmste eingestellt und eine Checkliste für die Übernahme vorbereitet. Doch wir hatten Glück: Das Fahrzeug war top. Einzig der Innenausbau offenbarte nach ein paar hundert Meilen die typische Schwäche bei dieser Bauweise: Pressspan und Vibrationen vertragen sich nicht. Ein Schraubenzieher und Sekundenkleber wurden zu unseren ständigen Begleitern, um lockere Bauteile zu fixieren – eine Erfahrung, die uns schon von unserem damaligen Florida-Trip bekannt war.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Hier sind unsere Erfahrungen und Einschätzungen der besuchten National Parks für Familien mit Kindern (Pete war zum Reisezeitpunkt 4, Heidi 9 Jahre alt).</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong><em>Zion National Park</em></strong><br />Ein beliebter Nationalpark. Der Riverside Walk am Ende des Canyons war für uns wenig spannend und schlicht überlaufen. Hier startet auch der Einstieg zu „The Narrows“, was allerdings erst mit älteren Kindern wirklich Sinn ergibt.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Unser Favorit: Der Watchman Trail zum Sonnenuntergang. Wir waren circa 2 Stunden unterwegs und es geht meist bergauf, aber die Aussicht oben angekommen entlohnt für den Aufstieg.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Fazit: Der Park ist extrem voll. Auch wenn Shuttlebusse fahren, steht man oft lange an. Wer nicht direkt im Park campt, wird bei der Parkplatzsuche an seine Grenzen stoßen.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong><em>Bryce Canyon National Park</em></strong><br />Nachdem wir beim Boondocking in Parknähe eingeschneit wurden, boten sich uns am nächsten Morgen atemberaubende Ausblicke auf die verschneiten Hoodoos.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Highlight: Der Queens Garden / Navajo Loop Trail.<br />Fazit: Sehr entspannt. Der Shuttle ist optional und Parkplätze (auch für RVs) sind ausreichend vorhanden.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong><em>Arches National Park</em></strong><br />Unser absoluter Favorit! Wir hatten das Glück, eine Nacht auf dem Devils Garden Campground zu ergattern – ein toller Platz, der leider sehr begehrt ist.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Highlight: Der Devils Garden Trail zum Sunset. Wir sind bis zum Double O Arch gewandert und auf dem Rückweg über den Landscape, Partition und Navajo Arch zurückgekehrt.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Fazit: Planung ist alles. Auch wenn man etwas Wartezeit bei der Einfahrt einplanen muss, haben wir am Ende immer einen Parkplatz gefunden.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong><em>Canyonlands National Park</em></strong><br />Der Park besteht aus mehreren, nicht direkt verbundenen Bereichen. Wir haben uns Island in the Sky und The Needles angesehen.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Highlights: Der Sonnenuntergang am Riff bei Island in the Sky (inkl. Lagerfeuer!) und die Mesa Arch am frühen Morgen. Bei The Needles hat uns der Slickrock Trail begeistert – den Weg anhand der Cairns zu suchen, machte den Kindern riesigen Spaß.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Fazit: Für große RVs eher mäßig geeignet. Die Distanzen sind groß und das volle Potenzial erschließt sich wohl eher mit Allradfahrzeugen auf den Offroad-Strecken. Parkplätze für RVs gibt es so gut wie keine und auch keinen Shuttle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong><em>Monument Valley</em></strong><br />Kein offizieller National Park, daher haben wir ihn nur auf der Durchreise am Highway passiert und einige Viewpoints für Fotos genutzt.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong><em>Glen Canyon National Recreation Area</em></strong><br />Hier haben wir für günstige $14 die Nacht direkt am Lake Powell beim „Lone Rock“ gecampt – ein echtes Naturerlebnis. Der Colorado River lädt zu einer kurzen Abkühlung ein auch wenn der Untergrund stellenweise ziemlich schlickig ist.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong><em>Grand Canyon National Park</em></strong><br />Ehrlich gesagt hat uns der Grand Canyon weniger beeindruckt als erwartet. Der Ausblick ist zwar gewaltig, aber für Familien mit kleinen Kindern beschränkt sich das Erlebnis weitgehend darauf, von verschiedenen Aussichtspunkten am Rim in die Tiefe zu schauen. Wir haben einen kurzen Walk in den Canyon gewagt, aber für echte Abenteuer müsste man deutlich weiter absteigen.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong><em>Petrified Forest National Park</em></strong><br />Dieser Park war eine positive Überraschung. Die Painted Desert erinnerte uns stark an Australien und die über 200 Millionen Jahre alten, versteinerten Baumstämme waren für die Kinder ein faszinierendes Highlight. Es ist eine Art drive-thru Park, für den ein Tagesausflug reichen würde. Wir sind am späten Nachmittag eingetroffen und einmal durch den Park zum Souvenirladen am anderen Ende gefahren. Hier kann man kostenlos campen. Auf dem Weg dorthin sind wir u.a den blue mesa trail gewandert. Am nächsten Morgen waren wir im Museum/Visitor Center und haben uns die Giant und die Long Logs angesehen. Grundsätzlich würde die Giant logs Wanderung hinter dem Museum ausreichen, um einige impossante Exemplare an versteinerten Baumstämmen zu begutachten.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong><em>Joshua Tree National Park</em></strong><br />Der Joshua Tree National Park hat uns mit seiner bizarren Wüstenlandschaft und den riesigen Felsblöcken sofort in seinen Bann gezogen. Die Joahua Bäume sind hübsch anzusehen und mal was ganz anderes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Unterkunft: Wir haben auf dem Black Rock Canyon Campground übernachtet, der außerhalb des Parks liegt. Die Wahl dieses Campingplatzes hat sich als nicht ideal erwiesen, da die Anfahrt zum Park bereits eine Stunde beansprucht. Besser wäre es, einen Platz im Park zu buchen,&nbsp; wobei der Platz, der direkt an der Heart Rock/Arch Rock Wanderung liegt z.B. zu klein für RVs ist.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Highlights: Besonders gefallen haben uns der Hidden Valley Nature Trail und der Arch Rock Trail – beides tolle und relativ kurze Touren, um die Felsformationen hautnah zu erleben.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Zusätzlich zu den Nationalparks haben wir am X Canyon an einer Tour teilgenommen. Anders kommt man leider nicht rein und laut anderen Reisenden ist er eine gute Alternative zum überlaufenen Antelope Canyon. Der Canyon an sich ist schon wirklich beeindruckend, vor allem, wenn man wie wir, rote Felsen mag! Für unseren Geschmack war die Tour allerdings ebenfalls voll und sehr touristisch. Hauptziel ist es, Fotos von sich und den anderen Teilnehmern zu machen. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Wie geht es nach einem Jahr Australien weiter? Für uns stand die Antwort früh fest: Statt eines langen Fluges wählten wir den Seeweg. 25 Tage, einmal quer über den Ozean, mit der Royal Caribbean Voyager of the Seas. Ein Abenteuer, das am 14. April 2026 in Brisbane begann.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Boarding &amp; Die Suite: Unser „Zuhause“ auf Deck 12</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Dank unserer Buchung einer Oceanview Panoramic Suite (Stateroom 1804) kamen wir in den Genuss des Priority Check-ins. Das war Gold wert: Minimale Wartezeit und direktes Boarding nach Gate-Öffnung, statt sich an starre Zeitfenster halten zu müssen.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong>Die Suite-Highlights:</strong></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Lage:</strong> Ganz vorne auf Deck 12. Niemand über einem und ein gigantischer Panoramablick auf den Pazifik direkt in Fahrtrichtung.</li>



<li><strong>Ausstattung:</strong> Perfekt für uns mit King-Size-Bett und einem Stockbett für die Kinder.</li>



<li><strong>Komfort:</strong> Zwei Badezimmer (einmal WC/Waschbecken, einmal Dusche/WC) machten den Alltag entspannt.</li>
</ul>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Clever planen: Pre-Cruise Angebote &amp; Internet</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Ein wichtiger Tipp für Kreuzfahrt-Neulinge: Die Preise im Online-Portal schwanken. Wir haben regelmäßig die Werbemails gecheckt.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br /><strong>Thema Internet:</strong> Statt des teuren &#8222;VOOM&#8220;-Pakets von Royal Caribbean (749,75 USD für 25 Tage) haben wir uns für ein 10GB-Paket von Gigsky für 153,99 USD entschieden. Für WhatsApp und kurze Recherchen völlig ausreichend. Wer mal mehr Speed braucht, kann an Bord auch 24-Stunden-Pässe nachbuchen. Man kann dann per eigenen Hotspot die Internetverbindung teilen.</p>

<li><strong>Frühstück:</strong> Exklusiv für Suite-Gäste im Chops Grill – mit À-la-carte-Service, frisch gepresstem O-Saft und Beeren, die es im Buffet-Restaurant nicht gibt.</li>

<li><strong>Kritikpunkt:</strong> Zu Beginn jeder Session lief oft 30–45 Minuten der Fernseher. Wir haben die beiden daher meist erst etwas später hingebracht, wenn die aktiven Mal- und Bastelrunden starteten.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />In Honolulu hatten wir zwei Tage. Günstigster Weg zu den Mietwagen am Flughafen: Die W-Line für $3 (passendes Kleingeld nötig!). Wir wanderten am Diamond Head und genossen die Strände.</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Fazit zu Hawaii:</strong> Den extremen Hype aus Europa können wir schwer nachvollziehen – die Natur auf den Kanaren ist teils sehr ähnlich.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />Die Vorbeifahrt an der Napali Coast empfanden wir als Zeitverschwendung, da das Schiff zu weit entfernt blieb. Die Zeit wäre in Kailua-Kona für den Vulkan-Krater besser investiert gewesen.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In Kona haben wir uns wieder für einen Mietwagen entschieden, den wir in der Nähe des Flughafens abgeholt haben. Wir haben die Gegend auf eigene Faust erkundet und die beeindruckende Lava-Landschaft genossen.</p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Fazit zur Zeitplanung:</strong> Leider war die Liegezeit des Schiffes etwas zu kurz, um die weite Fahrt zum Volcanoes National Park zu machen und dort zum Krater zu wandern. Wir haben uns daher auf die nähere Umgebung konzentriert.</li>



<li><strong>Tipp:</strong> Wenn ihr in Kona seid, unterschätzt die Entfernungen auf Big Island nicht – für den Vulkan sollte man wirklich den ganzen Tag einplanen.</li>
</ul>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Victoria (Kanada)</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br />In Victoria war die Zeit ebenfalls knapp, da wir bereits um 17:30 Uhr wieder an Bord sein mussten. Wir sind gegen 11 Uhr vom Schiff, haben einen entspannten Spaziergang durch die Stadt gemacht und uns dann ein echtes Highlight gegönnt: einen 30-minütigen Rundflug mit dem Seaplane. Der Blick auf den Hafen und die Küste von oben war der perfekte Abschluss vor dem Zielhafen.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Am letzten Morgen haben wir nochmals entspannt im Chops Grill gefrühstückt und sind dann ohne jede Wartezeit über die Gangway von Bord gegangen.</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Priority-Vorteil:</strong> Dank der roten Priority Tags war unser Gepäck im Terminal sofort griffbereit.</li>



<li><strong>Logistik:</strong> Ein kleiner Shuttle-Bus hat uns vom Ausgang des Terminals direkt zum Uber-Pickup gebracht (nur ein paar hundert Meter entfernt). So mussten wir die Koffer kaum schleppen – ein sehr komfortabler Abschluss dieser gewaltigen Reise.</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Seattle selbst konnte uns leider nicht wirklich überzeugen. Obwohl wir ursprünglich vier Tage für die Stadt eingeplant hatten, stellten wir fest, dass wir bereits nach zwei Tagen alle für uns interessanten Sehenswürdigkeiten gesehen hatten. Besonders schockiert hat uns das Stadtbild in der Innenstadt: Die enorme Anzahl an Obdachlosen, die vielen Zelte direkt auf den Gehwegen im Zentrum und die Präsenz psychisch kranker Menschen auf den Straßen haben unseren Eindruck stark getrübt. Ein deutlicher Kontrast dazu war unsere Airbnb-Unterkunft außerhalb der Innenstadt – dort war die Welt zum Glück noch in Ordnung und wir konnten die ruhigere Seite der Stadt mit schönen Spielplätzen genießen.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Angebote an Board </h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Langeweile kam hier definitiv nicht auf! Neben den täglichen Shows konnten wir uns beim Schlittschuhlaufen, Lasertag, Minigolf oder Klettern austoben – und auch für ein paar Runden im Pool war Zeit. Ein kleiner Kritikpunkt ist das Fitnessstudio: Es ist zwar in Ordnung, aber für die vielen Passagiere leider viel zu eng.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Jetzt noch schnell zuschlagen! Wer plant, ab 2026 die USA zu bereisen und die Nationalparks zu besuchen, sollte sich noch vor dem Jahreswechsel den preiswerten Jahrespass zulegen.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ab dem 1. Januar 2026 steigt der Preis für Besucher ohne US-Wohnsitz („Non-residents“) nämlich von 80 $ auf stolze 250$. Ohne diesen Pass wird es richtig teuer: Zu den regulären Eintrittsgeldern der Nationalparks kommen dann zusätzliche 100 $ Gebühr pro Park für Nicht-Residente hinzu.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Da wir ab Mitte Mai selbst mit dem Wohnmobil für ein paar Wochen an der US-Westküste unterwegs sein werden, haben wir uns bereits den digitalen „America the Beautiful Pass“ gesichert. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Gut zu wissen: Diese Änderung betrifft ausschließlich die Nationalparks; die State Parks sind von der Preiserhöhung nicht betroffen.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Mehr dazu lässt sich auf der <a href="https://www.nps.gov/planyourvisit/passes.htm#changes-in-2026" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">offiziellen National Park Service Website</a> nachlesen.</p>
