The Action Plan to realise the long-term Vision for Our Mountain’s Future has been created.

Kunanyi / Mount Wellington is a popular and beloved landmark for both Tasmanians and visitors. Wellington Park, where it is located, offers great recreational, cultural, and environmental benefits.

However, the Park's popularity has raised concerns about funding, amenities, environmental and cultural issues, and infrastructure, including access. The Tasmanian Government knows there are challenges with the mountain and the Park and wanted to understand what needs to change to make Tasmania's Vision for the mountain a reality.

From October to December 2024, we asked the community to tell us their thoughts on what is important for Our Mountain’s Future and over 9000 Tasmanians took the time to have their say.

What we heard was used to create a Vision for our iconic landmark, which guided this Action Plan.

We would like to thank everyone for participating and having a say.

Last year, we created a Vision for Kunanyi/Mount Wellington and the broader Wellington Park based on extensive consultation with experts and the community. The Vision set out the direction for the future of the Park over the coming decades.

The Action Plan sets out how we plan to achieve that Vision.

It proposes reforming the management of the Park to keep the best parts of the current arrangements, while improving on the areas that matter most to people - better fire management, better amenities, better access, and protection of environmental and cultural values.
