Visitors can enter a number of national parks for free Saturday.
In honor of National Public Lands Day a number of national parks are offering free admission—including the popular autumnal destination of Shenandoah National Park—according to the U.S. National Park Service.

On Sept. 29, visitors will have the $15 entrance fee waived at the park and can enjoy a hike along the waterfalls, a bike ride on the trails and even some photography of wildlife or the changing leaves.
