Can you recommend 3 diverse National Parks in California worth a visit?


assistant
California is home to several top tier National Parks. Yosemite would be at top of many lists for its natural beauty, including granite formations like Half Dome and El Capitan, lofty waterfalls like Yosemite and Bridalveil and distinctive landscapes like Tuolumne Meadows and the Mariposa Grove of giant sequoias. Lassen National Park is hidden gem in the northeast corner of the state. One can day hike to the top of the namesake volcano and explore active signs of vulcanism such as the fumaroles and mudpots of Bumpass Hell. Joshua Tree National Park, in the southeast part of the state, is fairly distinct from both Yosemite and Lassen with desert flora and fauna, include the namesake tree which is actually a succulent.
