Pierce County Parks and Recreation provides public parks and recreation services to the residents of unincorporated Pierce County. The Parks Department maintains over 3,900 acres at over 55 park sites, which includes two recreation centers, two boat launch sites, trail corridors, two golf courses, and a large variety of passive and active facilities.

Pierce County Parks also manages the location for the Pierce County Fair, a salt water fishing pier, two disc golf courses, and a bicycle/motorcross facility. Through Pierce County's Conservation Futures system we manage a large number of passive open space sites.
