The Price to Enter U.S. National Parks Set to Triple for Foreign Travelers

International visitors soon will face higher prices, potentially totaling hundreds of dollars, to visit U.S. national parks.

Beginning Jan. 1, an annual pass will cost $250 for nonresidents compared with $80 for U.S. residents, the Interior Department said Tuesday. Nonresidents currently pay the same rate as U.S. residents to visit parks. There is no change in the cost for U.S. citizens.
