Western National Park Road Trip - Activity Recommendations

After graduating this summer, my girlfriend and are going on a 25 day camping trip before we begin our careers. We will be towing a small camper (Aliner Ascape) behind a 4Runner and camping most every night. Starting in ohio, we will loop through Yellowstone, Arches, Zion and many other parks before returning to Ohio.

We are both relatively fit 23 year olds with a sense of adventure but without significant hiking experience. Additionally we are looking to keep spending low as campsites, fuel, and food will already be rather expensive.

Please recommend activities for us to fill our days. Hiking trails, swimming holes, museums, restaurants or anything else would be appreciated. Attached are images of our campsite reservations. Note that those in red are not planned (banking on boondocking those nights) and the one in orange is a hotel.

Here is a map of the trip! https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1qVCer84yLi6bswDUdjsAB2DwB5ux4KU&usp=sharing
