Park management plans

A management plan is a strategic document that sets a long term vison for each park. Management plans contain concise background information about the park(s) and outline the objectives and strategies developed to meet that vision. 

There are more than 350 parks reserves under the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972, the Wilderness Protection Act 1992, and the Marine Parks Act 2007. A complete list of parks and reserves, including links and information about the corresponding management plan, is provided below.
