Wake County is one of the fastest-growing areas in the nation and the most populous county in the state, with more than 1.2 million residents. The County has received national and international rankings and accolades from publications such as Money, Fortune and Time magazines as one of the best places to live, work and play – and it’s no surprise.

Our Mission: PROS preserves open space, promotes stewardship, and provides equitable and inclusive education and outdoor recreation for a diverse and growing community. We offer preservation, education and recreation opportunities across our nine parks and three nature preserves (and GROWING!) 361 days a year. Our parks have never been more popular! We serve over 2 million visitors annually and plan to open additional facilities soon. Lake Crabtree County Park is Wake County’s first park (opening in 1988). Lake Crabtree’s convenient and central location, park amenities, wildlife habitats and public programming make it a top destination for nature lovers and families alike. Haleys Branch is an exciting, new, 400-acre multi-use trail system that is currently in development and will be open to the public in 2028. Our community loves our parks (and so do we!).
