On August 28, 2017, the lifetime senior national parks pass price was hiked from $10 to $80. I was lucky to get mine at the $10 price.
The lifetime senior national parks pass is for senior Americans from age 62 and up.
Some of the benefits includes free access to more than 2,000 recreation sites managed by six federal agencies:
- National Park Service
- US Fish & Wildlife Service
- Bureau of Land Management
- Bureau of Reclamation
- US Forest Service
- US Army Corps of Engineers
Even though the lifetime senior national parks pass price was hiked to $80, it is still a great deal if it gets a lot of usage.
This link shows the various entrance fees of each national park. As you can see, visiting just three national parks who charge $30 per carload in one summer season would more than pay for the pass.
