The five parks
| Park | Visits in 2025 | Entrance fee (2026) | Nonresident fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zion | 4,984,525 | $35 per vehicle | $100 per person 16+ |
| Bryce Canyon | 1,967,367 | $35 per vehicle | $100 per person 16+ |

| Arches | 1,511,740 | $30 per vehicle | None |
| Canyonlands | 796,057 | $30 per vehicle | None |
Fees for all five
One car entering all five pays $150 in entrance fees, so the $80 America the Beautiful pass saves $70 for U.S. residents. Nonresidents also pay $100 per adult at Zion and Bryce Canyon unless they buy the $250 nonresident pass.
