National Park Rangers Day

Feb. 2, 2022

Today is the day when the work done by Park Rangers is praised in our country. This special career in Public Administration constitutes an invaluable and indispensable instrumental contribution to our natural resources' protection, which should be mentioned, promoted and recognised. Being a Park Ranger is a job that requires not only the appropriate training but also, and above all, a real commitment and passion for nature.
On this date, which marks the National Park Rangers Day, the Regional Government of the Azores cannot fail to highlight their importance to the Region, recognizing, in their daily work, the first line of defence of the environment and the protection of the unique natural heritage of each of our islands.
