National Conservation Lands

National Conservation Lands are protected public lands in the United States that encompass a variety of environments, including deserts, canyons, and forests. Managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), these lands are designated to preserve natural beauty, cultural resources, and wildlife habitats while also providing opportunities for outdoor recreation, such as hiking, camping, and wildlife viewing. Established through the National Landscape Conservation System, these areas aim to balance conservation efforts with public enjoyment and education about the environment and history.
