There’s no feeling like spending time in nature, auburn leaves litter the ground and you can enjoy some well-earned peace and quiet. Seniors can spend time exploring state and national parks for a lower price. With this great perk, those over 62 can buy an annual pass for $20 or a lifetime pass for $80.

This pass allows access to all 2,000 federal recreation sites, including National Forests and grasslands. Now that you’re retired there is no better time to explore Sequoia, Redwood, Yosemite, Joshua Tree, Kings Canyon, Pinnacles, and all the beautiful places that California has to offer. The cost of this pass includes entrance-fees, camping and even a driver.

Additionally, at state parks seniors have access to even more discounts. If you’re 62 or above you can claim a $1 discount for vehicle day use and a $2 discount on family camping at most California State Parks. No pass purchase necessary.
