Access to Crown Forest Land

You may be able to access certain Crown forest land for recreational or other purposes.

There are public access easements over some Crown forest land and opportunities to access other parts of the land, but you may need permission. Entering land where commercial forestry / harvesting operations are underway could also be dangerous so you are advised to contact the licensee to seek approval to access the land.

You can obtain a copy of the Crown forestry licence from LINZ.
