Ranger's Path: National Park Simulator is an atmospheric simulation that invites players to step into the boots of a national park ranger.

Ranger’s Path: National Park Simulator lets you slip into the uniform of a real US park ranger and take on the important task of protecting unique flora and fauna as well as extraordinary natural monuments and making them accessible to visitors.

As park rangers, it is their mission to keep hiking trails and campsites clean and maintained, remove obstacles such as fallen trees or branches, and to put up signs. They also interact with hikers, campers and other visitors to check tickets, camping permits, and fishing licenses. They answer questions about sights and wildlife, and guide hikers to their chosen trail. In addition to these everyday tasks, players also tackle various main missions, such as searching for a missing hiker or repairing a bridge damaged by a storm. Once completed, these missions unlock new park areas and their associated tasks, new visitor groups, and, of course, additional flora and fauna.

Equipped with essential tools like an axe, hammer, and litter picker, rangers will explore a variety of richly detailed biomes, including dense forests and flower-filled meadows to rocky ridges and winding rivers,  either on foot or in their fast and robust ranger pickup.  Using their ranger camera, players can observe and document encounters with a wide range of flora and fauna. From playful raccoons and majestic eagles to graceful deer and elusive wolves, each sighting adds a new educational entry to a growing personal wildlife lexicon.  

But above all, players become part of this nature experience. Beautiful valley views, spectacular sequoia trees, and impressive mountains rising from the dense forests will delight any nature lover. And when a deer grazes peacefully on the riverbank at dawn...Faremont National Park becomes the most beautiful workplace in the world.

Protect, restore, discover.
