wilderness park
Conserved natural area
A wilderness park is a protected natural area maintained in a largely undeveloped state, preserving native ecosystems and wildlife habitat.
Unlike conventional parks with manicured facilities, wilderness parks emphasize minimal human intervention—trails may be primitive, and amenities sparse: We hiked twelve miles into the wilderness park before finding a campsite.
The term often applies to designated portions of larger park systems.
