But let's take a step back and learn a little bit about the fascinating history behind national parks and their connection to this day.
The concept of national parks dates back to the mid-19th century when people started realizing the importance of preserving scenic areas and natural resources. The United States paved the way with the establishment of Yellowstone National Park in 1872, becoming the world's first national park.
Over time, more national parks were established, each with its own unique features and charm. These protected areas not only provide an escape from the hustle and bustle of city life but also play a crucial role in preserving biodiversity and natural ecosystems.
Now, let's get to the exciting part – free admission! On this special day, national parks across the country open their gates to welcome visitors without charging any entrance fees. It's the perfect opportunity for families, friends, and solo adventurers to embark on memorable outdoor adventures.

While free admission is undoubtedly fantastic, it's essential to plan your visit ahead to make the most of this day. Check out the websites or social media pages of the national parks you intend to visit for information on hiking trails, camping spots, and any special events taking place.
Remember to pack all the necessary essentials like sunscreen, water bottles, snacks, and appropriate clothing and gear for your chosen activities. Oh, and don't forget the camera – you'll definitely want to capture those incredible moments!
In the spirit of exploring national parks, did you know that the world's smallest national park is the Hot Springs National Park?
