TOP 10 MOST INSTAGRAMMABLE NATIONAL PARKS IN EUROPE

Tucked away in northwest England, the Lake District, with its placid lakes, undulating hills, and imposing mountain scenery, is a hiker's paradise. It also provided inspiration for poets like William Wordsworth. Its strong showing gives it the top spot with a near-perfect score.

Located on Italy’s Ligurian coast, Cinque Terre is notable for its brightly painted towns, vertiginous trails, and breathtaking ocean views. Boasting over a million hashtags on Instagram, its charm endures on social media despite its popularity.

The waterfalls and rivers in Krka National Park, Croatia, possess an emerald hue. Over forty-three thousand 5-star Google reviews are a testament to its appeal. The elevated wooden boardwalks leading to Skradinski Buk are a must, though its Instagram presence is comparatively lower.

The Peak District – England’s very first national park, founded in 1951 – encompasses various kinds of moorland and limestone formations. Photographers regularly visit Stanage Edge and Mam Tor to capture their striking geological features.

Once a royal hunting preserve, New Forest is filled with ancient oaks, expanses of heath, and wild ponies. Despite being near London, it maintains a serene atmosphere. Families and cyclists find it very appealing.

This park, in the Apennine Mountains, provides refuge for local wildlife, including brown bears, wolves, and lynx. This is an area considered to be Italy's green heart. It provides a quiet atmosphere coupled with cultural treasures, specifically well-preserved medieval villages.

Positioned between Marseille and Cassis, the Calanques are characterized by their impressive limestone inlets and turquoise waters. Ideal for climbing, hiking, and kayaking, it merges urban convenience with the attraction of the Mediterranean coast.

Found south of Naples, this park merges untamed coastlines, ancient olive groves, and recognized UNESCO sites like Paestum. As the birthplace of the Mediterranean diet, it even offers interesting cuisine.

Mystical Dartmoor, situated in southwest England, inspires with its wild ponies, weathered granite, and local moorland myths. Arthur Conan Doyle even drew from this area for his Sherlock Holmes mysteries.

Gargano, located on the Apulian peninsula, consists of coast, forest, and plateau. Its ancient "Foresta Umbra" beech forest is especially notable. Its comparative lack of Instagram buzz makes this a tranquil getaway.
