Recreation and Access provides guidance on how activities shall be treated in conjunction with the land classifications. Activities that take place on parks and reserves should either reflect the purpose for which the land is set aside as per its classification or be otherwise expressly allowed for under the Reserves Act 1977.
If it is not clear whether an activity can take place on a particular reserve then the Reserve Management Plan is the appropriate tool to help provide more certainty.
Learn more about recreation and access of our reserves in Part B – 6.2 Recreation and Access, and share your feedback with us.
