crown land
State-owned public acreage
Crown land is territory owned by the monarch or the state, particularly in Commonwealth countries like Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom.
The term dates from when monarchs held lands personally, though today such lands are typically administered by governments on behalf of the Crown.
Crown land may be leased for various uses—forestry, mining, grazing—but remains public property.
The hiking trail crosses crown land, so no permits are needed.
