Why the pass pays for itself

One pass, every park, all year

  • For Your Whole Family

    One annual pass admits the owner and everyone riding in a non-commercial vehicle at per-vehicle fee areas — or the owner plus three adults where per-person fees apply. Children 15 and under are always free.

  • Drive Through the Parks

    The pass covers entrance and day-use fees for one personal vehicle at every national park and federal recreation site — rentals, RVs, and motorhomes included.

  • Valid for 12 Months

    12 months

    One year, one pass, thousands of trips. Each pass ships with a blank signature line for the passholder to sign.

  • Entry to 2,000+ Recreation Sites

    2,000+

    More value with every park you visit. Whether you drive, walk, or take public transit, your pass opens thousands of national parks and federally managed lands.

Do the math

Entrance Fees Add Up

Save with the U.S. Park Pass when you visit more than one park. A single carload at a major park runs $20–$35; two or three visits and the pass has already paid for itself.

Is the pass worth it?

Add the parks you'll visit — we'll do the math.

The $80 Annual Pass covers entrance fees at every national park that charges one. Add the parks on your trip; we'll compare what you'd pay at the gate against the pass.
