Interpreting National Parks
National parks present a number of challenges for the interpreter.
Often visitor engagement and interpretation are a low priority for national parks. With deminishing budgets and limited resources, national park management teams are forced to focus more effort on site management than the visitor experience.
And that is a shame, because interpretation is the most powerful management tool there is!
Not only does good interpretation educate the visitor about national park resources, it can also make them care about the national park in a deeply profound way, and encourage them to behave whilst in the national park in a responsible way which helps reduce maintenance and management costs.
