Fall is weeks away, yet it's not too early to start planning for your fall or winter excursion. Traveler's Essential Park Guide, Fall 2016, takes a closeup look at Everglades and Shenandoah national parks, and looks farther afield to Costa Rica and Manuel Antonio National Park where you'll find sloths and toucans.

Within the covers you'll find a three-day itinerary for visiting Everglades, as well as details on three-, five- and eight-day kayak trips in the park. If you're planning to visit Shenandoah this fall, Kim O'Connell takes a look at some of the charming gateway communities that rim the park.

Kim Mills, meanwhile, details a mid-winter escape to the rainforests of Costa Rica with their incredible wildlife and beautiful beaches. 

You'll also find travel information for Rocky Mountain, Yosemite, and Dry Tortugas national parks, as well as a book review section.
