NiE - National Parks

30th Aug 2013 1:40 PM

We live in a country with many distinct and diverse natural environments. Fortunately throughout Australia there are large areas of public land set aside to protect these places of natural beauty. In fact, around four per cent of Australia's land area is designated as national parks.
