state park
Protected outdoor area
A state park is a protected natural area managed by a state government, typically offering recreational activities like hiking, camping, and swimming.
State parks are generally smaller and less famous than national parks but often closer and more accessible: We spent the weekend at the state park.
They preserve local landscapes, wildlife habitats, and sometimes historical sites.
