The summer travel season gets under way in June with Great Outdoors Month. To encourage visitation on public lands, the Bureau of Land Management will waive recreation-related fees for visitors to agency-managed public lands on June 8, National Get Outdoors Day; Sept. 28, National Public Lands Day; and Nov. 11, Veterans Day.
BLM-managed public lands offer an array of recreational opportunities, including hiking, hunting, fishing, camping, mountain biking, horseback riding, boating, whitewater rafting, off-highway vehicle driving and rock climbing.
On fee-free days, site-specific standard amenity and day-use fees at BLM recreation sites and areas will be waived. Other fees, such as overnight camping, cabin rentals, group day use, and use of special areas, will remain in effect.
