All national parks are having their entrance fee waived on Veterans Day Friday, the last fee-free day of the year from the National Park Service.
Most national parks are free year-round, but the Veterans Day special applies to the roughly 110 parks that normally charge for entry. Fees for in-park services like camping, boating and tours still apply.
“Whether on an entrance fee-free day or throughout the year, we encourage everyone to discover their national parks and the benefits that come from spending time outdoors,” said National Park Service Director Chuck Sams in a 2021 NPS release announcing the five fee-free days in 2022.
