Currently, the 5th-grade voucher is only valid on sites managed by the National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Bureau of Reclamation.

We aren’t the only ones who love these free passes…
We love this program! Fourth graders are at a wonderful age to utilize the national parks and become lifelong lovers of the outdoors and the parks.
We used this pass this past summer and had SO MUCH FUN!! We only drove 15 hours to the Grand Canyon, but it took us 6 days to get there because we hit everything between us and it. It saved us so much money too. I can’t wait for my daughter to hit 4th grade in a couple of years…😃
We used this last year with our 4th grader. We went to the Badlands, Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, and Devils Tower Monument. The national parks are not free and require entrance fees, so the pass for the 4th grader is an excellent opportunity.
This is a great program. My fourth grader got her pass this fall and we went to Bryce National Park. Hope to travel to some more parks soon.
Sounds like a great trip for your family! Thank you!
We used this last summer to go to yYellowstone, amazing. Looking forward to using it this year also as my kid is in 5th grade.
What a fantastic memory for your family!
military gets a free year pass for family as well!
