Volunteer Ranger Program


Welcome to the Volunteer Ranger Program Portal

 

So you’re interested in becoming a volunteer ranger?

 

Volunteering is a great way to experience South Australia's magnificent parks network while providing a valuable volunteer service to park visitors and national park staff.

 

 

Purpose

 

The Volunteer Ranger Program provides opportunities for South Australians with a passion for the environment to get involved in activities that help support the management of our parks and reserves, and connect people to nature.

 

 

Minimum Requirements

 

  • A current First Aid Certificate (HTLAID003 Provide First Aid or higher)
  • Ability to make you own way to the park (either by car or public transportation)
  • Mobile phone

 

Volunteers will be required to undergo a Working With Children Check and National Police Certificate before commencing volunteer duties.

 

Volunteers will be provided with all the support and training required to be able to complete volunteer tasks safely and competently.

 

Please read through the Volunteer Ranger Role Description.

Volunteer rangers will need to commit to the following:

Parks Involved in the Program

 

The Volunteer Ranger Program is a new initiative developed by the National Parks and Wildlife Service South Australia initially piloted at Morialta Conservation Park and Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park. However, the program has been expanded into more parks over time.
