National Parks Pass

**Please note, the National Parks Pass can not be purchased at Brown v. Board of Education National Historic Site. The nearest national park that sells the pass is Harry S Truman National Historic Site in Independence, Missouri.**

The National Parks Pass is an annual pass that provides admission to any national park charging an entrance fee. The pass costs $50 and is valid for one full year from first use in a park. More than 80% of the proceeds from the sales of National Parks Passes go directly into supporting priority projects in national parks.

The National Parks Pass admits the pass owner and any accompanying passengers in a private vehicle* if a park has a per vehicle entrance fee. Where a per person entrance fee is charged, the National Parks Pass admits the pass owner, spouse, children and parents. The National Parks Pass is nontransferable and does NOT cover or reduce use fees such as charges for camping, parking, tours, and concessions.

The National Parks Pass can be purchased three ways:
1) in any national park where an entrance fee is charged, and at participating park book stores operated by cooperating associations
2) online at www.nationalparks.org
3) by calling 1-888-GO-PARKS

* A private vehicle is defined as any noncommercial vehicle that is being used for private recreational purposes.
