Public Land

Alpine National Park

Public land covers about 28% of the Goulburn Broken Region - in the form of State, National and Regional Parks, reserves, wilderness areas, Commonwealth land and conservation areas. Public land consists primarily of land that is less suitable for agriculture due mainly to its landform (GBCMA, 1997). Much of the public land is covered with remnant vegetation and is a very important natural resource.
