The [[National Park System]] of the [[United States]] is the collection of physical properties owned or administered by the [[National Park Service]]. The collection includes all [[List of national parks of the United States|national parks]] and most [[National monument (United States)|national monuments]], as well as several other types of [[protected areas of the United States]].

As of 2006December 2024, there are 390{{National Park Units}} [[List of the United States National Park System official "units"|units]] of the National Park System.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nps.gov/aboutus/national-park-system.htm|title=National Park System (U.S. National Park Service)|website=www.nps.gov|language=en|access-date=2021-07-09}}</ref> However, this number is somewhat misleading. For example:, [[Denali National Park and Preserve]] is counted as two units, whereassince the same name applies to a national park and an adjacent national preserve. Yet [[FortJean MoultrieLafitte National MonumentHistorical Park and Preserve]] is not counted as aone unit, becausedespite itits double designation. Counting methodology is consideredtypically abased featureon the language of [[Forta Sumterpark's Nationalauthorizing Monument]]legislation.

Although the designations generally reflect sites' features, all units of the system are considered administratively equal and with few exceptions the designations themselves do not define their level of protection. Each site has a management plan consistent with its ecological, historic, and recreational resources and its enabling legislation.

In addition to areas of the National Park System, the National Park Service also provides technical and financial assistance to several "affiliated areas" authorized by Congress. Affiliated areas are marked on the lists below.

In addition to areas of the National Park System, the National Park Service also provides technical and financial assistance to several affiliated areas authorized by Congress. Affiliated areas are marked on the lists below.

The [[National Register of Historic Places]] is administered by the Park Service (with nearly 79,000 entries) and automatically includes all National Park System areas designated due to their historic significance. This includes all National Historical Parks/Historic Sites, National Battlefields/Military Parks, National Memorials, and some National Monuments.

<br clear="all" />

National Park System units are found in all 50 states, the [[Washington, D.C.|District of Columbia]], and the [[Insular area|U.S. territories]] of [[Guam]], [[American Samoa]], the [[United States Virgin Islands|U.S. Virgin Islands]], and [[Puerto Rico]]. The territory of the [[Northern Mariana Islands]] has an affiliated area but not an official NPS unit.

== National Parks ==

As of 2005, there are 58 officially-designated National Parks in the United States and its dependent areas.

Nearly all units managed by the National Park Service participate in the [[National Park Passport Stamps]] program.

There are 138 [[National monument (United States)|national monument]]s, 89 of which are administered by the NPS and are listed below. Of these, 87 (all except Grand Canyon-Parashant and Avi Kwa Ame) are [[List of the United States National Park System official units|NPS official units]].

The remaining 49 monuments are administered by five other federal agencies. Three, Grand Canyon–Parashant, Craters of the Moon, and Avi Kwa Ame National Monuments, are jointly administered by the NPS and the [[Bureau of Land Management]], and Tule Lake National Monument is joint with the [[Fish and Wildlife Service]]. National monuments are typically smaller and protect just one or few major resources. They include both natural and historical sites and can be established by the president under the [[Antiquities Act]]. 34 former national monuments have been redesignated or incorporated into national parks.

{{Main|National preserve}}

* [[Aniakchak National Monument and Preserve]]

There are 21 national preserves in the United States, 19 of which are counted by the National Park System as [[List of the United States National Park System official units|official units]]. Ten are stand-alone official units, while eleven others are designated areas where hunting or grazing is permitted as part of a larger "national park and preserve" or "national monument and preserve". Nine of those are counted as separate units, while [[Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve]] and [[New River Gorge National Park and Preserve]] are single units (there is no functional difference). [[Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve]] is not officially a national preserve but has similar management policies, while [[Salt River Bay National Historical Park and Ecological Preserve]] is unrelated.

==National reserves==

The National Park Service provides limited assistance to National Heritage Areas, but does not administer them.

[[File:City of rocks view NPS.jpg|thumb|[[City of Rocks National Reserve]] in [[Idaho]]]]

National reserves are partnerships between federal, state, and local authorities. Within the boundaries of the three national reserves are combinations of federal land (Park Service or National Wildlife Refuges), state parks and forests, local public lands, and private properties. Two national reserves are currently managed as official units.

In addition, there are sites where the NPS is authorized to provide financial and technical assistance to local authorities for interpretive or educational purposes, but do not have the right to acquire land or have a say in land use or zoning. These include the 55 [[National Heritage Area]]s, as well as National Commemorative Sites such as [[Quindaro Townsite]] or the [[Landmark for Peace Memorial|Kennedy-King National Commemorative Site]]. There are also various administrative groups of listed parks, such as Manhattan Sites, National Parks of New York Harbor, and Western Arctic National Parklands. The NPS also owns [[conservation easement]]s (but not the land itself) for part of the area called the [[Green Springs National Historic Landmark District]]<!-- 15645.11 acres -->.

In the 1930s and 1940s, the NPS developed dozens of [[recreational demonstration area]]s, most of which eventually became national or state parks.
