A national park passport stamp app for iPhone and iPad
GoParks keeps the real cancellation stamps you collect at parks. Scan the imprint at the kiosk and GoParks keeps the photo, date, and place together in a passport that fills in as you go. Not a replacement for the official physical book. A companion that lives in your pocket.
The thirty-year tradition
For decades, national park visitors have carried the Passport To Your National Parks book, that pocket-sized blue book published by Eastern National, with cancellation stamps you collect at park visitor centers. It's tactile. People love it.
GoParks isn't trying to replace it. The physical book is its own ritual, and the rubber-stamp impressions in it have a texture no app can reproduce.
What GoParks does
Scan the cancellation stamp at the visitor center and GoParks keeps a photo of the real imprint, with the date and place. Your passport fills in with the actual stamps you collected, not generated graphics.
People keep it for the moments when the physical book isn't enough: they forgot to bring it, they lost it, or they just want a backup of every imprint that lives in their pocket all the time.
Physical and digital, side by side
The official Passport To Your National Parks is sold by Eastern National at park visitor centers. Cancellation stamps are administered by the NPS at each park. GoParks is independent of both. Collect the rubber stamp in the book. Log the visit in GoParks. Get both for free.
Supported parks
GoParks supports parks across the U.S. and Canada: the U.S. National Parks plus monuments, lakeshores, recreation areas, and Canadian national and provincial parks. Browse the full list →

Are the stamps in GoParks the same as NPS cancellation stamps?
They are photos of the real cancellation stamps you scan. GoParks does not invent its own digital stamps; it keeps the imprint you actually collected, alongside the date and place.
Does GoParks integrate with the NPS app?
No. The two apps don't share data.
What if I change phones?
