Six entrance-fee-free days for our national parks for 2021 has been announced by the National Park Service.
These days will allow visitors to enter parks in the national park system without having to pay an entrance fee. This does not include camping fees.
According to the National Parks Traveler:
Six days in 2021 will be entrance-fee-free days in the National Park System.
The dates for 2021 are:
- Monday, January 18 – Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
- Saturday, April 17 – First Day of National Park Week
- Wednesday, August 4 – One year anniversary of the Great American Outdoors Act
- Wednesday, August 25 – National Park Service Birthday
- Saturday, September 25 – National Public Lands Day
- Thursday, November 11 – Veterans Day
“Each of the fee-free days celebrates or commemorates a significant event, including the establishment earlier this year by President Trump of the Great American Outdoors Act. The legislation marks the single largest investment ever in national parks and will result in enhanced facilities and expanded recreational prospects for all visitors,” said Margaret Everson, the acting director of the National Park Service.
