Twelve national parks and reserves in the Australian Alps cross State and Territory borders.
Stretching from Canberra through the Brindabella Range to the Snowy Mountains of New South Wales and along the Great Divide through eastern Victoria, Australia’s alpine and subalpine environments are unique and special.
As a well-watered, snow-clad and mountainous area in a mostly dry and flat continent, the Australian Alps, with 1.6 million hectares of protected areas, are of great significance.
