Enjoy FREE admission to all National Parks!

National Parks offer free entry several times a year. This is a fantastic opportunity to explore any of the 400+ parks available across the country.

Why Visit National Parks with Kids?

Visiting national parks is not only an adventure but also a wonderful educational experience for children. They get to learn about nature, history, and conservation while having fun.

Junior Ranger Program

The Junior Ranger Program is perfect for kids. They can explore the parks, participate in exciting activities, and earn badges. It’s a fun way to learn about the importance of national parks and how to help protect them. Many programs are targeted to ages 5 –14, but are available to all.
