How the NPS Passport program works
Get a Passport book
The NPS Passport is a collectible booklet sold at visitor centers and online, organized by region and ready for stamps.
Find a station
Passport cancellation stamps live at staffed visitor centers, ranger stations, and some park stores. Use the map above to find ones near your route.
Stamp and log it
Each stamp records the park name and your visit date — a running log of every unit you've explored, from parks to historic trails.
Passport stamp questions
Know what to bring, where to look, and what to check before you make a trip for a stamp.
How do Passport cancellation stamps work?
Bring your Passport book to a participating visitor center, ranger station, or park store. The ink cancellation usually records a place and date. Stamping is free, though park entrance fees may apply. Ask staff where to find the stamp and check the date before pressing it into your book. See the NPS guide to Passport stamps.
Where can I buy a Passport book?
Many park stores sell Passport books. The National Park Service park-store page explains the editions and links to the program partner's online Passport store. You don't need a book to explore this map.
How do I find a stamp station on this map?
Search for a park or station, browse the map, or use the A–Z park list. Open a pin for its location details and directions. This locator currently maps 608 reported stations across 371 NPS units. A park may have several stations, and one station may carry more than one cancellation.
Can I rely on a station being open when I arrive?
Not without checking. Buildings, partner sites, and stamp availability can change by season or staffing. Check the park's official NPS page and current hours before you travel; call ahead if a particular stamp is the reason for your trip. Some sites offer outdoor or self-service stamps, but don't assume after-hours access.
What if I forgot my book or missed a stamp?
Ask the site whether you can stamp a loose piece of paper to add to your book later. If you've already left, contact the park directly about mail-in or other options; policies differ by site. This map can't issue stamps or confirm a visit.
Is this an official National Park Service website?
No. NPS Passport Stamp Locator is an independent, fan-made planning tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by the National Park Service. Use nps.gov as the authority for park access, hours, fees, and current stamp availability. If this independent map helps, buy me a coffee to support it.
