01 / From a pass to a plan
You have a pass.
Where could it take you?
A national pass for the big trip. A state pass for weekends nearby. Work out what fits the places you actually want to go.
01 / THE PLAN
What does your pass open up?
Add the passes you own. Discover places with documented benefits, from a national park on your wish list to a state park closer to home.
02 / THE PLAN
One trip. More than one kind of place.
Bring national parks, state parks, campgrounds and other recreation destinations into the same itinerary. Save stops on a map and check recorded facilities before you go.
03 / THE PLAN
See how trip planning worksAnother pass—or individual fees?
Compare estimated fees with the passes you own and eligible passes you could buy. See how national and state passes fit the same trip, with conditions and missing information kept visible.
An illustration of the workflow, not a live route or coverage result. Estimates use dated information. Camping, reservations and other fees are not automatically covered.

Is the app free?
All implemented Parkspan features are free, with no ads or subscriptions in the app. Park entrance fees, official passes, reservations and mobile data charges are separate.
Can I download it yet?
Parkspan is available on Google Play. Check the channel details before installing a direct APK. See the download page for installation and backup guidance.
Does it work on iPhone?
The app currently supports Android 11 and newer. You can browse this website on an iPhone, iPad or computer, and an iPhone version is coming soon. No release date has been announced.
What works without a signal?
The bundled catalog, saved places, trips and pass wallet work offline. Download a selected map area before you leave. A download covers an area around a chosen point, not necessarily the whole park or the roads between stops. External links and uncached full-size photos may still need internet.
Does a photo replace my physical park pass?
No. The wallet keeps a private reference copy. It does not issue or validate a pass, and a stored photo does not establish acceptance as an official digital pass. Carry the pass and identification required by the destination.
Are fees and park conditions live?
Parkspan uses dated, sourced information with some coverage gaps. It does not provide live closure alerts or an all-clear for travel. Check the destination's official information for current access, reservations, fees and eligibility.
Where do my plans and pass photos go?
Personal records stay in app-private storage, and pass photos are encrypted with a device-held key. Maps, remote photos and optional public-data updates make network requests to their providers. Backups and support reports leave the app only through actions you choose.
