Keep Colorado Wild Pass
The Keep Colorado Wild Pass is an optional lower-cost Annual State Parks Pass that will be included in your vehicle registration through the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV), unless it is declined. It will cost $29, which is less than half the cost of an Annual Vehicle Park Pass — which is currently $80. The pass cannot be transferred to a different vehicle or a new vehicle.
Eligible Vehicles:
- Passenger Vehicles Including:
- Passenger Cars
- Sports Utility Vehicles
- Motor Homes
- Passenger Vans
- Lightweight trucks with an empty vehicle weight that is less than or equal to 16,000 pounds.
- Motorcycles
Coloradans will have the option to decline the pass while registering or renewing their vehicle.
- If in person, tell the County Clerk’s staff you are declining the Keep Colorado Wild Pass.
- If online or at a kiosk, there will be a prompt during the transaction asking if you want the Keep Colorado Wild Pass. Select “No” to decline the pass.
- If mailing your vehicle registration renewal to the county, your renewal card (beginning with January 2023 cards) will have the amounts with and without the pass. Write the check for the amount that does not include the $29 pass.
The Keep Colorado Wild Pass purchased during your annual vehicle registration with the DMV is linked to the specific vehicle being registered.
The pass provides car, bike and foot entry into Colorado state parks. This pass does not grant access to federal recreation fee areas, state wildlife areas or state trust lands.
