Exclusion zones
Some public land has areas that are excluded from hunting and are listed under the general written permission conditions. For State forests, this may be due to forestry operations or safety concerns in the immediate vicinity. Hunters must always be aware of these areas and must be able to correctly identify each zone and understand the allowable activities within the zone.
The GPS maps supplied with your written permission are colour-coded to represent the different zones within the public land area.
Hunting exclusion zones have restrictions on the types of activities allowed.
- General Hunting Exclusion Zone
- Total Public Exclusion Zone
- Temporary Hunting Exclusion Zone
- Hunting Exclusion; Hazard Reduction Burn
- Weekend Hunting Only
- Bowhunting Only
- Weekday Bowhunting Only

There is a legend at the bottom of each map that explains the different hunting and exclusion zones. It is your responsibility to be able to identify these correctly.
