Home›National Park›National Parks of South AmericaGroupNational Parks of South AmericaThis group collects the 61 members of the Geography atlas's Protected Areas: National Park subcategory whose own sourced entity-description text places them in South America. The subcategory carries 587 national parks worldwide, and this group reorganises how that flat list is browsed by world region rather than adding any new claim about a single park, since the country or place each description names is already the authority the atlas holds for that park. A reader looking for a national park in South America can go straight to this group instead of scanning the whole subcategory page. Parks the atlas places in a different world region sit in their own separate top-level group rather than here, and a park whose description names no identifiable country or region stays off every group and is listed as ungrouped on the subcategory page.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonIUCN DesignationWell-attestedII - National Park (IUCN Category) 1Browse ByAll National Parks of South AmericaNational Parks of South America61 entriesNational Parks of South AmericaFilter Results61 entriesCountryAllArgentina (4)Bolivia (2)Brazil (4)Chile (40)Colombia (1)Ecuador (1)France (1)Guyana (1)Panama (1)Peru (1)Venezuela (4)IUCN CategoryAllNational Parks of South America (61)National Designation TypeAllBiosphere Reserve (1)National Natural Park (1)National Park (57)International DesignationAllRamsar Site (Wetland of International Importance) (4)UNESCO Biosphere Reserve (12)UNESCO World Heritage Site (13)Marine or TerrestrialAllCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial) (7)Marine (2)Terrestrial (44)Governance TypeAllGovernance by Government (50)Governance by Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (1)Private Governance (1)Shared Governance (1)Establishment EraAll1926 (1)1929 (1)1934 (2)1935 (3)1937 (1)1939 (2)1940 (1)1941 (2)1945 (1)1950 (1)1958 (1)1959 (3)1962 (1)1964 (1)1965 (1)1967 (4)1969 (1)1970 (3)1971 (1)1973 (2)1974 (2)1979 (2)1980 (1)1981 (1)1982 (2)1983 (2)1985 (1)1988 (2)1994 (2)1995 (2)1996 (1)1997 (1)2007 (1)2008 (1)2010 (1)2013 (1)2018 (2)2023 (1)Area BandAll0.038007 to 53 sq km (5)1,865 to 1,550,000 sq km (19)211.61 to 643.4 sq km (10)54 to 208.56 sq km (11)647.37 to 1,863.75 sq km (13)ContinentAllEurope (1)North America (1)South America (58)Governing BodyAllAdministracion de Parques Nacionales (4)Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation (Brazil) (4)Corporacion Nacional Forestal (Chile) (36)French Office for Biodiversity (1)Guyana Protected Areas Trust (1)INPARQUES (Venezuela) (3)Ma'u Henua Indigenous Community (1)National Park Service (1)National System of Protected Areas (Colombia) (1)SERNANP (Peru) (1)SERNAP (Bolivia) (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 11Rapa Nui National ParkNational Park2 linksSalar del Huasco National ParkNational Park2 linksSerra da Capivara National ParkNational Park2 linksTalampaya National ParkNational Park2 linksTayrona National ParkNational Park2 linksTolhuaca National ParkNational Park2 linksTorres del Paine National ParkNational Park3 linksVicente Pérez Rosales National ParkNational Park2 linksVillarrica National ParkNational Park2 linksVolcán Isluga National ParkNational Park2 linksYendegaia National ParkNational Park2 linksShowing 51 to 61 of 61, page 2 of 2.← Previous12Sources1.
