Summer is almost here, and we have a full calendar of events to celebrate the season. Not to mention our six unique trails are open seven days a week whenever adventure calls. The best way to get the most out of your Park experience is with an annual pass. And now, we have a way for the whole family to get in on the fun!
Last month we launched a brand-new Family Annual Pass. This pass guarantees a year of admission for two adults and up to three youth, plus it includes access to passholder-exclusive events, discounts in the Park and the Old Rock Cafe, and deals from our local partners around the region. Have four kids in the family? Want to add Grandma and Grandpa to the pass? At the time of purchase, extra adults and youth can be added to the pass for an additional fee, so you can customize the pass to what your family needs.

This summer is the perfect time to take advantage of passholder benefits for the whole family and enjoy some of the added-value events we have on the schedule. Join us every day at 2 pm on the Outcroppings Deck from June 1st to August 31st and meet some of our live animal ambassadors and their naturalist counterparts. On June 3rd and 10th, visit us for family-friendly activities like guided hikes, discovery stations, and more for National Trails and National Get Outdoors days. Plus, join us for our passholder-exclusive Gorge-ous Evening Out on June 10th for an evening in the Park after the gates have closed.
Looking for more time in the Park to yourself? Passholders can now get early access to the Park the third Wednesday of every month starting at 7:30 am to hike the trails while it’s still quiet, get in some early birding, or just soak in the view for an extra hour. This year we began a series of guided hikes exclusively for our passholders as well including birding walks, sensory hikes and Off the Beaten Path excursions.
There’s nothing better than a hearty lunch on an outdoor patio after a day of hiking. Passholders receive 15% off at the Old Rock Café any time, so stop by when you’re in the Park and check out our updated menu options for this year.
Our individual Adult Annual Pass and Rockin’ Discovery Pass are still available, but the Family Pass makes it easier than ever to bring everyone on your list together. Grab one for your household or have one on deck for when the grandkids come to town. Like our individual passes, the Family Annual Pass is cheaper than the cost of bringing two adults and three youth to the Park twice. Come back a second time, and you’ve already saved money.
This summer, consider joining our passholder family!
