Residents of New Brunswick can now access provincial park day passes using their public library cards. This new initiative allows library cardholders to check out free day passes to several provincial parks, enhancing public access to natural spaces.

The program is a collaboration between provincial parks and the New Brunswick Public Library Service.
“It is so important for all New Brunswick residents to have access to our beautiful parks,” said Tourism, Heritage and Culture Minister Tammy Scott-Wallace in a media release announcing the news.
“Our parks provide countless opportunities. They are a space for us to come together, appreciate our surroundings, and to share our culture and nature.
The passes are valid for the following parks:
- Fundy Trail Provincial Park
- Hopewell Rocks Provincial Park
- Mount Carleton Provincial Park
- Murray Beach Provincial Park
- New River Beach Provincial Park
- Parlee Beach Provincial Park
Due to limited availability, each library cardholder can obtain one pass, valid for three days from the date of issue.
This initiative will continue until the fall, providing ample time for residents to participate.
