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
