Big Bend N. P. or any of the canyonlands parks in Utah.4
How about this one?Or... you could tell us what you are looking for in the park (short/long hikes, easy/hard to reach views, warm/cold weather, etc.).
Also, tell us where you are coming from, so we don't do the "It's too similar to home" dance.

When I stumbled across the "best parks to visit during free parks week" article I linked in the sticky about free parks, I also fund this: Best time to visit US and Canadian National Parks. It's an analysis of LP author recommendations as to best time to visit. It doesn't cover all parks, just some of the most popular.Big Bend & Hawaii Volcanoes are both recommended in March. So are desert parks such as Death Valley and Joshua Tree. Everglades. In late March, Great Smoky & Shenandoah.

Why not go to the most obscure of them all, National Park of American Samoa?If you want to stay within the Lower 48, I like bzookaj's suggestion. Or how about this one, which also is pretty obscure.

Dry Tortugas NP - a boat trip from Key West. Either camp a few days, or just do a day-trip by ferry and spend added time other places in the Keys.11
To answer a question someone ask me ...I am looking to do some hikings. Could be a day hike or a multiple day hike. I am coming from Montreal (Canada) and to be honest weather is not a factor on my mind. I would to spend a great week, seeing natural beauty. That's pretty much it.
So far, thank you all for the suggestions. I would have to look a little bit more into it to make the best decision but i want to say a big thank you !!

Remember, there are more than National Parks for good hiking. You could check out Grand Staircase National Monument in Utah which has great hiking.
