TNP rangers are an essential link of the management organisation. They monitor all natural processes and all activities related to visitors and inhabitants of the park. They are responsible for enforcing the TNP Act; they inform and warn visitors and have the right to collect penalties for specific infringements. Their work is increasingly centred around cooperation, communication, and raising awareness of the local inhabitants and park visitors. TNP rangers are actively involved in various professional, educational and research tasks conducted by the park, infrastructure maintenance (putting up information signs, path and trail maintenance, maintenance of rest areas), preservation of cultural landscape through mowing and supply and maintenance of the TNP mountain huts. Two-thirds of TNP rangers also perform the tasks of hunting guards.
