These parks are significant for protecting rare and threatened species, many of which are highly sensitive such as the sub-alpine swamps and wetlands, as well as the southern-most part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area. They include a large area of wilderness and Mount Mackenzie, which has been declared an Aboriginal Place.
The plan of management outlines park values and how the park will be managed in the years ahead.
The plan of management was adopted in 2010 and amended in 2022.
