Free admission to state parks on June 7

Visitors can receive free admission to all Wisconsin State Parks, Forests and Trails during State Park Open House Day on Sunday, June 7, a highlight of which will be a Centennial Celebration for Peninsula State Park, one of Wisconsin’s oldest and most visited state parks.

On State Park Open House Day, no admission stickers are required on vehicles entering state parks, forests and recreation areas, and trail passes are not required for bicyclists, in-line skaters, or horseback riders using state trails that normally require a trail pass. Many state parks have special State Park Open House events.

With opportunities for bicycling, hiking, canoeing, boating, fishing, and horseback riding at various locations statewide, Wisconsin boasts unique and diverse landscapes to interest all travelers.

The event also coincides with Free Fishing Weekend, in Wisconsin, so no fishing license is required to fish at the many lakes and rivers located in state parks and forests.
