If you're a frequent visitor to the U.S. National Parks or if you're planning a
trip that includes visits to multiple parks, you should consider purchasing an
annual park pass. (It also makes a great holiday gift!) There are also special
lifetime passes available for senior citizens and persons with physical
disabilities.
National Parks Pass
The
NP Pass costs $50 and is good for one year from the date of purchase. It
admits the pass owner, spouse, children and parents where a per person
fee is charged, and admits all vehicle occupants where a vehicle
entrance fee is charged. The NP Pass covers admission to national parks only.

Eagle hologram may be purchased and affixed to a National Parks Pass to
cover entrance fees at not only national parks, but also at sites
managed by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U. S. Forest
Service, and the Bureau of Land Management.
