We have had the free pass for several years now but it is not reconised in other states.

I had a NSW pass, but as I am traveling & have not been in NSW for about 2 years mine was useless. Not holding my breath for a national scheme, probably falls in behind a national drivers license scheme.

Thanks for the info David. It's the little things like this from members that make this site great......OOHHH and the menbers tooo :)
All Australian concession card holders are now eligable to apply for an fee exemption card for entry to NSW National Parks.
You need to apply using this application form and the pass is current for 1 year.
http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/resources/parkpass/ExemptionPCC-TPI.pdf
It now covers all parks including Kosciuszko, but does not exempt you from the camping fee, must reapply each year.
It does apply to any vehicle up to 8 seats that you are travelling in.
Previously this pass was only available to NSW concession holders.
Cheers
David
Thanks David,
That is good to know. Wish WA was free too.
Our WA parks one still needs a fee, the 12 months concession one is the best value but like NSW still have to pay camping fees.
See this link for WA info;
