The Best Ways To Celebrate Labor Day In The U.S.
Fun For The Whole Family
Americans gear up for Labor Day every year, seeing in the festive day with a family barbecue, fireworks, or perhaps partaking in one of the many Labor Day activities held in their locality: whether that's a fireworks display or a parade, or both!
Labor Day promises fun for the whole family and a well-deserved day off.
Alabama's Gulf State Park
If the outdoors are your thing and you live in Alabama, visiting Gulf State Park is a must! There are 900 acres of fishing lakes, many miles of hiking and biking trails, opportunities for kayaking, and a tennis court. There's also an interpretive nature center, for those who love learning more about the natural world.
Alaska's Denali National Park
Denali in September is the place to be, and if you love autumnal mountain views, Denali National Park has them on-tap. While providing a rugged hiking terrain, an overnight camp may see you enjoy a Northern Lights show, which are still plentiful despite the time of year. Denali's Backcountry Lodge or Skyline Lodge are the perfect rustic accommodations to start your Alaskan Labor Day adventures from.
