America’s National Parks system offers free passes to 4th graders and their families because they want kids off the couch and get them and their families outdoors to explore the natural wonders of our country.
GET YOUR PASS
All you need to do is follow simple steps and you'll be on your way to visit America's most beautiful parks, lands, and waters in no time. All 4th graders can take their family and friends with them for free too! The pass is good for an entire year. Click here to get your pass!
When you get to any destination, all you need to do is show your pass to a ranger or leave it on the dashboard of your car. The pass admits all children under 16 and up to three adults for free. The pass is also good for one vehicle if there is a vehicle entrance fee. Commercial vehicles can't use a pass to get in.
The pass doesn't cover things like parking fees, camping, boats, and special tours.
At some sites, the ranger will exchange your paper pass for a plastic pass. The plastic pass is waterproof and a great keepsake! Click here to see the locations where you can get a plastic pass.
