Thread: Hello! Newbie here, I have some questions and concerns on hunting laws.

Jessica, it's not quite anywhere on DOC land either.

Normally the permit has conditions, for DOC this usually means more than 200m away from a tramping track, and only in areas that are designated as hunting areas.

A simple rule of thumb would be if there are roads and/or fences, best to speak to the closest land owner first...

Most farmers are pretty friendly folk, be polite, and leave your rifle in the car when you first go talk to them.

Good luck.
