The Hanford Nuclear Reservation, White Sands Missile Range, China Lake Naval Air Weapons Station, the White House, etc are all located on public lands. But, I suspect that you would be, at the very least, subject to a trespass violation if you were found on any of this properties.

The term 'public land' refers to public ownership, not necessarily public access.
