Fees & Passes Details

Understanding the entrance fee structure for Arches National Park is essential for planning a visit in 2025, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience. The fees are structured to accommodate different types of visitors, from those arriving in private vehicles to cyclists and pedestrians, providing them with a 7-day pass to explore the breathtaking landscapes of Arches. Private Vehicle Fee: At $30.00, this fee covers one private, non-commercial vehicle and all its occupants, making it a convenient option for families or groups traveling together. This allows for unlimited re-entry into the park over seven consecutive days, offering ample time to explore the park's vast network of trails and iconic formations. Motorcycle Fee: Motorcyclists are charged $25.00, which includes admission for the motorcycle and its riders. This option caters to the unique needs of motorcycle enthusiasts looking to experience the park's scenic drives. Per Person Fee: For those entering without a vehicle, such as bicyclists, hikers, and pedestrians, the fee is set at $15.00 per individual. This encourages visitors to explore the park's natural beauty up close, whether they're passing through on a bike ride or embarking on a multi-day hiking adventure. Additionally, the implementation of a Timed Entry Ticket system during the peak visitation months from April 1 through October 31 addresses congestion issues. This system requires vehicle visitors to purchase a $2.00 Timed Entry Ticket, in addition to the entrance fee or a valid Park Pass, for entries between 7 am and 4 pm. This initiative is crucial for enhancing the visitor experience by ensuring that the park's attractions and facilities remain accessible without overcrowding. For visitors planning to explore multiple federal recreational lands within a year, the America the Beautiful - The National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass presents an exceptional value at $80.00. This pass covers entrance fees across a vast array of federal lands for a year, offering substantial savings and convenience for those passionate about outdoor exploration. It's important to remember that the fees collected play a vital role in the stewardship of Arches National Park, contributing to the maintenance, preservation, and enhancement of its facilities and natural treasures. By paying entrance fees or purchasing passes, visitors directly support the ongoing efforts to ensure that Arches, along with other national parks, remains a pristine and accessible destination for future generations to enjoy.
