Planning your trips for next year? The National Park Service just revealed the days in which you can get into the parks at no cost.
Parks that charge a fee to visit will have “free entrance days” on national holidays and a few other select dates for a total of six days in 2025.
“Whether you are a family looking for a weekend getaway, friends seeking a memorable outing or even solo adventurers desiring to connect with nature, free entrance days make it easier for everyone to explore the parks,” NPS said in a news release.
About 100 of the more than 430 national parks charge a fee to enter.
The “free entrance days” are:
- Jan. 20: Martin Luther King Jr. Day
- April 19: First Day of National Park Week
- June 19: Juneteenth National Independence Day
- Aug. 4: Great American Outdoors Act Signing Day
- Sept. 27: National Public Lands Day
- Nov. 11: Veterans Day
