Victoria is the smallest mainland state in Australia. It contains a staggering 1966 separate Protected Areas with a total land area of 33,780 km² (14.84% of the state’s area). 36 of these are National parks, totalling 25,774 km² (11.32% of the state’s area).

The Parks are managed by Parks Victoria, a state government organisation. There are also many smaller state areas which are subject to commercial activity such as logging.
