Open-range wildlife park near Victor Harbor with 400-plus Australian animals. Hand-feed kangaroos and emus, pat koalas at scheduled sessions, and handle snakes - all included in entry. Free BBQ facilities on-site.
π Family Action Verdict
Best for families with young children who want genuine hands-on wildlife contact rather than a behind-the-fence zoo experience. The koala patting and kangaroo feeding are reliably the highlights; both are included in entry with no add-on fees.

βHad such a fantastic time here. Itβs a very immersive, open-range park where you can get right up close to the wildlife. The 11 am/2 pm koala sessions are worth the trip alone! It was a bit crowded during my visit, but it didnβt take away from the experience. For students: Iβd suggest checking for online concession rates to save time at the gate. Pro tip: Donβt skip the $1 feed bags the kangaroos are very friendly!β

βAmazing wildlife park. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind. Every single team member we came across seemed to love their job and appeared happy to be there. My son loved feeding the kangaroos and the free animal interactions are so great. Other wildlife reserves in Adelaide charge an extra fee to have koala experiences but here you can pat them for free and that was so special.β

βWe loved visiting this place! The kangaroos were absolutely adorable, and we really enjoyed spending time with them. We just hope theyβre getting enough food from the keepers, as they did seem quite hungry even in the early afternoon.β
