Parks Pass Application Form PDF Details

Exploring the wonders of New York's state parks, historic sites, and recreational facilities is made significantly more accessible and affordable for residents with disabilities through the Individual Access Pass. This pass allows individuals who meet specific disability criteria, as outlined in the application, to enjoy free or discounted access to a vast array of attractions operated by the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. From serene park settings and historical landmarks to recreational activities, qualified applicants can take advantage of reduced or waived fees for amenities like parking, camping, and swimming, although certain exclusions such as marina dockage and group rentals apply. The application process is meticulously detailed, necessitating various forms of identification, a photograph for the pass, and either a physician’s certification or proof of qualification through specific organizations. Once submitted via mail—since onsite processing isn’t available—applicants are advised to anticipate a processing period of two to four weeks. This comprehensive approach ensures that all eligible New Yorkers can access and enjoy the beauty and fun of the state’s parks and facilities, emphasizing inclusivity and the well-being of its residents with disabilities.
