Free Days at U.S. National Parks – California

The next fee-free days at U.S. National Parks will be August 14-15, 2010. More than 100 national parks will waive entrance fees for certain Free Days this year, including several in the San Francisco Bay Area, like Muir Woods, San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, and some of our California favs like Yosemite National Park.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) will also waive recreation-related fees for visitors on many public lands, including areas within the National Landscape Conservation System (NLCS), which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.

CHEAP TIP: Many national parks and BLM areas never charge an entrance fee.

WHAT’S THE DEAL: Fee-Free Days at U.S. National Parks and BLM public lands. (Camping permits & fees still apply).
