Home to one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, Arizona is a beacon for outdoor enthusiasts--the desert landscape is brimming with opportunities for exploration and adventure. In this guide we join travel writer Roger Naylor as he takes us through the state parks of this amazing region. The parks featured throughout this book offer some of the best hiking, camping, fishing, boating, stargazing, and wildlife watching in the state. It's no surprise to Arizona residents that these state parks offer the same kind of experience found in national parks and monuments--providing great adventure through easy day trips and weekend getaways.

New discoveries in this edition include a collection of hidden yurts within walking distance of Cornwall's biggest exotic animal sanctuary, a tents-only site in the grounds of National Trust-owned Polesden Lacey Estate and an eco friendly Cairngorms campsite where you can go llama trekking in the hills.

And every site has been selected with family camping in mind. Brought to life with entertaining, insightful reviews and hundreds of colour photographs, the handpicked selection of family campsites is also accompanied by informative features, including campfire recipes, family festivals and outdoor games for kids. So whether it's paddling a canoe to the village pub, stargazing from the comfort of a luxury yurt or following sandy footsteps to a local beach, Cool Camping: Kids, from the people behind the coolcamping.com website, is the must-have book for embarking on your next family adventure.
