Saturday, June 8, is a Free Park Day. All Minnesota state parks and recreation areas will offer free admission to everyone; no vehicle permits are needed.
Minnesota state parks are open year-round, and there’s a state park within 30 miles of most Minnesotans. With a free day each season, it’s an excellent opportunity to get out there and explore someplace new – or visit an old favorite at a new time of year! Whether you stay the whole weekend or spend a few hours outside, you’ll make memories that will last a lifetime.
The entrance fee waiver for fee-free days does not cover amenity or user fees for activities like camping, rentals, or special tours. The goal is to encourage families to spend time outdoors with a walk. Research shows that walking offers multiple benefits, from increased creativity and better brain function to more flexibility and stamina. So you won’t just burn calories; you’ll also improve your well-being.
The next Free Park Day will be Friday, November 29.
