Don’t you love those few days each year when you can visit a national park for free? Well, this is the last one for 2025, so enjoy.

On Tuesday, all properties managed by the National Park Service will be fee-free to enter in recognition of Veterans Day. This means you can get into your favorite park with your group in a passenger car, saving as much as $50 for that visit.

However, camping and boating will still cost you. Note that if the federal government is still shut down, you’ll need to check how that will affect your visit.

Here are the nine national parks in California: Channel Islands (boat ride is not free), Death Valley, Joshua Tree, Lassen, Pinnacles, Redwood, Sequoia, Kings Canyon and Yosemite.
