Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District (MPRPD)

Residents and visitors alike benefit from the spectacular natural beauty of the Monterey Peninsula. The region's ecologically diverse native landscapes, including undeveloped coastal dunes and wetlands, rocky shoreline, redwood canyons, Monterey pine terraces, and mixed hardwood floor plains are a major attraction for residents and visitors alike. The Monterey Regional Park District was formed in order to preserve and protect as much of this natural beauty as possible for future generations.

Our Mission is to acquire and maintain open space in the District for preservation and use, working with partners and the community, for public benefit, enjoyment, and environmental protection. We hope to be an inspirational, inclusive, respected, sustainable, and valued open space district that collaborates with and serves the community and its conservation needs through interconnected open spaces, public parks, education, and advocacy for the entire community.
