 For Vacation Care and other groups of 10 or more we can run a special holiday program just for you. Bookings are essential, so call us to pre-arrange your adventure. 
Experience Walkabout Park at night. Guided by the rangers, enjoy an interactive mammal and reptile encounter, spot the nocturnal animals, enjoy a bush tucker BBQ, listen to stories while toasting marshmallows around the campfire, sleep out in comfort under canvas, wake to a bush breakfast, then go 'behind the scenes' with the rangers. Bookings Essential For a very special experience when you visit Walkabout Park, you may prefer to book your own personal ranger who will make sure that you get a real Aussie bush experience, from getting nose to nose with Australia's weird and wonderful creatures, to going walkabout along the bush tracks to learn about bush tucker and bush medicine and other lessons taught to the Walkabout Park rangers by our Aboriginal cultural advisers.
Meet the animals free and happy in the bush Nowhere else can you get up close and personal with so many of the friendliest wild animals in Australia. Get a personal introduction to Australia's iconic species. Meet a red kangaroo, a grey kangaroo, a wallaroo, emu, wallaby, pademelon, wombat, koala, python, dragon, turtle, possum, lizard, flying fox or dingo, and lots lots more. The animals have as much fun as the people do. Except for a handful that have special needs, they all roam free and safe through a fox-proofed bush sanctuary.
The latest additions to our growing family are already a hit with rangers and visitors alike! Our Tasmanian devils are best seen during the afternoon show (3:30pm on weekends or holidays, 2:30pm on weekdays) or during our Wild Sleep-Out nocturnal tours (by arrangement), but lucky visitors have reported seeing them at various times during the day.

We have various volunteer programs for international and local volunteers to suit most age groups and interests.
Do you like making light meals and keeping everything clean and tidy? Can you be available regularly a day or two per week or fortnight? Sometimes things are pretty busy. At other times there's time to sit on the veranda and drink tea with the animals. Perhaps you have a friend who would like to volunteer with you. Just call or email us. Our contact details are at the bottom of this page. Everyone, please, we need your help to save us from forced closure due to sandmining activity on our border. You can make a difference. We must persuade the Hon. Brad Hazzard, NSW Minister for Planning, to stop Rocla NZ from putting in a new sand mine which will destroy Australia Walkabout Wildlife Park. Please click on the photo of the Pademelon (below) to find out more and what you can do.
