Established in 1971, the PWS oversees nearly 50% of Tasmania's land area, encompassing over 2.9 million hectares of diverse ecosystems. The service collaborates with the Tasmanian Aboriginal community to honor the rich cultural heritage of the land.

PWS offers a wide range of outdoor activities for visitors, including guided walks on the well-known Overland Track and the Three Capes Track, caving in the Mole Creek area, and opportunities for skiing, mountain biking, and fishing. Additionally, the PWS emphasizes education through programs that highlight the state's unique wildlife and heritage.

Visitors can explore numerous parks, such as Cradle Mountain and Freycinet, while also gaining insights into sustainable practices. The PWS is committed to the safe enjoyment of these natural spaces, ensuring that both present and future generations can experience Tasmania's stunning wilderness responsibly.
