Join our Fellowship of Park Naturalists
The Urban Park Rangers, a division of the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation, help all New Yorkers discover New York City outdoors.
New York City's nearly 29,000 acres of parkland provides nature centers to explore, waterways to fish and canoe, trails to hike, rocks to climb, wildlife to watch, and natural resources to study. Parks also provide the vital habitats in which our native plants and animals live.
In New York City's parks you will find the Urban Park Rangers at Ranger Stations and Nature Centers. The Urban Park Rangers' mission is to link New Yorkers to the natural world. Rangers teach people to care for the environment and the parks, protect the parks and their wild residents, and restore New York City's natural heritage.
