Visit National Parks For Free April 21-29

Earlier this year the Park Service had announced free entrance days at 100 parks across the country, including parks within a couple hours’ drive from Renton.

The first fee-free days occurred during the weekend of the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, and now Saturday April 21 marks the start of another week-long free pass into five National Parks in Washington state.

The following dates this year are also fee free:

• April 21-29, National Park Week
• June 9, Get Outdoors Day
• Sept. 29, National Public Lands Day
• Nov. 10-12, Veterans Day weekend

There are five participating parks in Washington state, including:

• Fort Vancouver National Historic Site
• Lewis & Clark National Historical Park
• Mount Rainier National Park
• Olympic National Park
• Whitman Mission National Historic Site
