Tasmania
Our Forest Estates are located on State Forest land across the north of Tasmania. Under the Forest Management Act 2013, members of the public may visit our forests, but to help keep you safe, we recommend that you contact our Launceston Office. We can provide advice on what operations are in progress in the areas you wish to visit, the possibility of heavy vehicles sharing those roads, general road conditions and any locked gates.
To ensure the health and safety of all users, please refer to the following Timberlands Pacific Conditions of entry for community use before entering our forests.
Additional Information
Organised Events | To ensure your safety, and as organised events may impact on other forest users and local infrastructure, you need to seek permission to hold an organised event. Examples of organised events may include conducting a research project, mountain bike or motorbike events, car rallies, horse riding or cross country, orienteering and other ‘on foot’ events.
Before providing permission, Timberlands Pacific needs to make sure that the event is not planned near an active forest operation and will not affect any special values that may occur in the proposed activity area.
Please contact the Launceston Office at least one month prior so all the appropriate authorisations are in place and we have made you aware of the relevant forest hazards and impacts that may affect participants.
No Hunting is Permitted | No hunting is permitted, even if permits are obtained externally. Recreational hunting impacts on year-round game control programs and does not help to reduce wallaby or possum numbers in a meaningful way.
Firewood | No firewood collection is permitted within the Taswood Estate.
