Chapel Hill is “A Town within a Park”!
Everyone needs the opportunity for self-enrichment, adventure, fellowship and quiet reflection. At the Chapel Hill Parks and Recreation Department, we understand these needs and are dedicated to providing cultural and recreational opportunities in a safe, maintained and inviting environment.
Our goal is to provide for every citizen the opportunity to enhance their quality of life. Our parks and greenways provide space for families and friends to fellowship, play, walk, bike and relax. They provide sanctuary for animals and preserve plant life, improve water quality and help clean our air. They promote quality neighborhoods and higher standards of living that lead to enhanced property values.
