It’s literally free! You can go to Parks Canada and get your 2017 National Park pass, and as promised, all you pay is $0.00.

Since 2017 will be the celebration year of Canada’s 150th birthday, it’s free to go to National Parks in the country! The cost for passes is usually around $136.

 

You don’t need to get the pass already, but it’s suggested that if you plan on going frequently you get one ahead of time so that you can get into the parks more easily!

 

Some things to note about the pass (From the Parks Canada site):

  • You only need to order one pass for your group or family if you are all travelling together. A 2017 Discovery Pass is valid for everyone arriving in the same vehicle at a national park, or arriving together at a marine conservation area or historic site.
  • The Discovery Pass is only accepted at national historic sites which are operated by Parks Canada.
  • Activities such as tours or parking that normally carry a separate fee may not be covered by the Discovery Pass.
  • Camping fees are not included with the Discovery Pass
  • Validity Period: January 1st 2017 to December 31st 2017.
  • Display: The 2017 Discovery Pass must be hung from the rear view mirror of the vehicle facing forward or it can be placed on the front driver side dashboard facing up.
