"Sometimes you've just got to get away from it all and clear your head with the peace and serenity of a national park. On certain "fee-free" days throughout the year, enjoy free entry to all national parks and monuments including Muir Woods and Yosemite National Park, and free admission aboard all of the historic vessels at the Hyde Street Pier of SF's Maritime National Historical Park."
"The National Park Service is hosting 10 free days in 2026. All National Park Service sites that charge an entrance fee will offer free admission; however, beginning in 2026, free entrance on these days will be for US citizens and residents only. Nonresidents will pay the regular entrance fee and any applicable nonresident fees. Parks listed on this page typically waive their entrance fees on nationally designated fee-free dates. Please check with each park below for operating hours and event schedules. New for 2026, fee-free days are only applicable for US residents. See the latest updates."
Ten fee-free days in 2026 grant free entrance to all National Park Service sites that charge an entrance fee for US citizens and residents. Nonresidents will pay the regular entrance fee and any applicable nonresident fees on those dates. Visitors should check each park for operating hours, event schedules, and required reservations. Some parks still charge parking or shuttle fees and may require reservations even on fee-free days, such as Muir Woods. Participating California parks listed include Cabrillo, Death Valley, Joshua Tree, Muir Woods, and Pinnacles. Information was last updated 12/12/25.
