The organisation structure of the park consists of 4 departments, of which the department for environmental education was presented the most. It’s because the education is a crucial step to make the issue of nature conservation more familiar for visitors, students and children. There are many target programs for public as well as for schools. The park employs about 30 national park rangers who work in the field and organise excursions for public and ranger training courses for children (junior ranger project) and adults too. Other programs are targeted for local population (botanical and wildlife excursions) and for schools (partner schools are going to take lessons about the NP - 2 hours a week). Beside the education, a communication and cooperation with representatives from department of environmental education of other austrian national parks is important, they meet 3 times a year. | The organisation structure of the park consists of 4 departments, of which the department for environmental education was presented the most.
