“White Mountain National Forest: Land of Many Uses” read the signs that greet you. The National Forest is a managed and multiple-use forest that provides areas for both recreation and human enjoyment, as well as wildlife habitat and harvesting of the forest, a renewable resource.
THE 800,000-ACRE WHITE MOUNTAIN NATIONAL FOREST
is a powerful presence in the White Mountains. Adjacent to (or part of ) every village and town, the National Forest ensures that this region will remain largely undeveloped. For additional information, call or write any of the offices below.

The White Mountain NATIONAL FOREST RECREATION PASS The White Mountain National Forest is one of the most heavily used National Forests in the country. With that use comes a large workload to maintain the recreation facilities. As a result, a program is in place to collect fees for recreational use. All unattended vehicles parked on National Forest land must display a Recreation Pass where signed. Pass options include a $5 day pass available onsite, a $30 single or $40 household annual pass for those who use the Forest year-round. Recreation Passes are available at area businesses, USFS Information Centers, and the White Mountains Visitors Center. For those holding the America the Beautiful Pass, Access Pass, and Senior Pass, parking is free. Note: prices are subject to change. To get your Recreation Pass, visit us online at
