ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK, Colo. (AP) — Entrance fees are being waived at Colorado's national parks this weekend to celebrate Presidents Day.

The National Park Service says more than 400 parks across the country will be offering free visitor admission and will be waiving commercial tour entrance fees and transportation entrance fees.

Free entry will be offered at Rocky Mountain National Park, Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, Mesa Verde National Park and Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park from Saturday through Monday.

Other fees such as reservation, camping, tours, concession and fees collected by third parties are not included.
