Meet the animals free and happy in the bush Nowhere else can you get up close and personal with so many wild Australian animals. Get a personal introduction to Australia's iconic species. Meet red and grey kangaroos, wallaroos, emus, wallabies, pademelons, wombats, koalas, pythons, dragons, turtles, possums, lizards, flying foxes, dingoes, quolls, Tazzie devils and lots lots more. The animals have as much fun as the people do. Some need to be in secure natural camps. Others roam free and safe through this 80 acre fox-proofed bush sanctuary.
Australia's largest carnivorous marsupials! The best time to see these animals is at feeding times in the afternoon (see "Daily Ranger-led Activities" above for times) or, better still, join a Wild Sleep Out when you can see these nocturnal animals at their most active.

Unlike the "Wild Sleep Out" soft-camping option (opposite), this is an overnight adventure for over 18's who are fit, who'll eat anything, and who don't mind getting dirty. This is not a luxury camping experience. This is a real introduction to "bush survival". Walkabout Park's Wild Night Out is an opportunity for groups to really experience the Australian bush. The Aussie bush comes alive after dark, and on a clear night the Southern Skies are magnificent with no city lights to spoil the view. This adventure workshop is not for those who need hot water on tap and a plug for the hairdryer. Tents are provided, but you may not do a lot of sleeping as you go walkabout to learn about Australian nature. Collect your Wild Worksheet from reception, or click on the koala below to print out your own and bring it with you (and don't forget your pen - you're going to need it).
Use this worksheet to help you find the animals at Walkabout Park and learn some fascinating facts about them. PLUS hand in your Wild Worksheet when you visit Walkabout Park to go into the draw to win free passes so that you can visit the animals again! 9am to 5pm
