List of the World’s National Parks – The Little Budget Travel Book

Update: I was starting to build this raw list of national parks when a reader told me that Wkipedia’s List of National Parks (click here for it) is very comprehensive and also includes descriptions of each park. Rather than just seeing the names, please go there to get much more information.

For your enjoyment, here’s all the known national parks in Africa.
