Lijst van gebieden in het National Park System van de Verenigde Staten

National Park Service logo

Het National Park System van de Verenigde Staten is de verzameling van eigendommen in het bezit of in beheer door de National Park Service, een federaal agentschap onder het ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken dat bevoegd is met het beheer van die eigendommen. De bekendste gebieden in het National Park System zijn de nationale parken en monumenten. Daarnaast bestaan er verschillende andere types; zie National Park Service voor een schematisch overzicht.

Sinds 2011 zijn er 397 "eenheden" in het National Park System. Dit aantal is echter wat misleidend. Zo wordt Denali National Park and Preserve als twee eenheden geteld, daar waar het Fort Moultrie National Monument niet als een eenheid telt omdat het als onderdeel van het Fort Sumter National Monument gezien wordt.

De National Park Service levert ook technische en financiële steun aan verschillende "affiliated areas" die als dusdanig erkend zijn door het Amerikaans Congres. Ten slotte valt ook het National Register of Historic Places, de monumentenlijst van de federale overheid, onder het beheer van de National Park Service. Alle eenheden in het National Park System worden automatisch opgenomen in die lijst.
