The National Park Service preserves, protects, and shares our nation's special places and stories.
About us
Most people know that the National Park Service cares for national parks, a network of over 420 natural, cultural and recreational sites across the nation. The treasures in this system – the first of its kind in the world – have been set aside by the American people to preserve, protect, and share the legacies of this land. People from all around the world visit national parks to experience America's story, marvel at the natural wonders, and have fun. Places like the Grand Canyon, the Statue of Liberty, and Gettysburg are popular destinations, but so too are the hundreds of lesser known yet equally meaningful gems like Rosie the Riveter in California, Boston Harbor Islands in Massachusetts, and Russell Cave in Alabama. The American system of national parks was the first of its kind in the world, and provides a living model for other nations wishing to establish and manage their own protected areas. The park service actively consults with these Nations, sharing what we've learned, and gaining knowledge from the experience of others. Beyond national parks, the National Park Service helps communities across America preserve and enhance important local heritage and close-to-home recreational opportunities. Grants and assistance are offered to register, record and save historic places; create community parks and local recreation facilities; conserve rivers and streams, and develop trails and greenways.

Sometimes we wonder what happened to all those people who asked us for directions… Til we meet again! For those just getting out of the car, welcome. When you arrive at a park, locate the Visitor Center or Ranger Station and ask a ranger about: 🚫 Closures or Postings - Are there any trails, campsites, or other areas closed or posted due to hazardous conditions that may change your planned itinerary? Yes, we know about the 2,000 lb fluffy cow blocking traffic. Careful. It can run up to 35 mph. Can you? 🦨 💨Hazards - Is there any fire or animal activity (oh, you mean the one with the odor?), high water from recent rain events, rock fall, or icy trails and routes? Are you visiting a historic structure with uneven steps, unleveled paths, or no barriers to protect you from falls? Okay, Indiana Jones, here’s where you grab the vine. Just kidding. Don’t touch the vine. Your insurance covers what? ⛈ Weather Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes…Is there rain, wind, snow, or extreme temperatures (high or low) forecasted for the duration of your trip? Awesome. You know what they say about Texas, California, Nebraska, well, almost everywhere, wait five minutes and there’s a good chance it’ll change! 🤠 The ranger hat - Yeah, the flat hat is pretty cool. No. We can’t give it to you or sell it. But thanks for noticing! ↔️ Directions. We’ll do our best. Never hurts to read up on those tree moss growth patterns and star charts.
