Wellington Park, Protected area in Tasmania, Australia
Wellington Park spans 182.5 square kilometers of land near Hobart, featuring diverse ecosystems from forests to alpine environments with Mount Wellington at its center.
The area received official protection status in 1993 through the Wellington Park Act, establishing a dedicated management trust for the preservation of natural resources.
The land holds significance for the Muwinina people, with the mountain known as kunanyi in recognition of Aboriginal heritage and connection to the territory.
The park network contains multiple entry points with hiking trails of varying lengths, connecting visitors to lookout spots and recreational facilities throughout the reserve.
Research has documented over 500 native plant species within the park boundaries, representing 30 percent of Tasmania's native vascular flora in one location.
