Stewardship areas of New Zealand

This article is about the legal concept in New Zealand. For the generic concept, see Land stewardship.

Stewardship land is a type of public conservation land in New Zealand that is stuck in a limbo state, after being transferred to the Department of Conservation (DOC) but not yet allocated a formal protection category.

Like other types of conservation land, stewardship land is administered by DOC under the Conservation Act 1987.
