Grand Canyon National Park Entrance Fees

Entrance Pass Programs

National Parks Pass
The National Parks Pass is an annual pass that provides admission to any national park charging an entrance fee. The pass costs $50 and is valid for one year from the month of purchase. More than 80% of the proceeds from the sales of National Parks Passes go directly into supporting priority projects in national parks.

The National Parks Pass admits the pass signee and any accompanying passengers in a private * vehicle if a park has a per vehicle entrance fee. Where a per person entrance fee is charged, the National Parks Pass admits the pass signee, spouse, children and parents. The National Parks Pass is nontransferable and does NOT cover or reduce use fees such as charges for camping, parking, tours, and concessions.

The National Parks Pass can be purchased four ways:

1) in any national park where an entrance fee is charged, and at participating park book stores operated by cooperating associations
2) online at www.nationalparks.org
3) by calling 1-888-GO-PARKS
4) by sending a check or money order payable to the National Park Service for $50 (plus $3.95 for shipping and handling) to: National Parks Pass, 27540 Avenue Mentry, Valencia, CA 91355

Questions about your National Parks Pass order? Email: parkspass@nationalparks.org or call toll free 1-888-GoParks (1-888-467-2757).

 For an additional $15, a Golden Eagle hologram may be purchased and affixed to a National Parks Pass to cover entrance fees at not only national parks, but also at sites managed by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U. S. Forest Service, and the Bureau of Land Management. The Golden Eagle holograms are available at National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, and Bureau of Land Management fee stations.
