Get up close and personal with some of the country’s most famous (and most adorable) wildlife at Cleland Wildlife Park. This conservation park is located just 20 minutes from Adelaide’s city centre but feels like you’re so much further away thanks to the wealth of natural bushland of Cleland Conservation Park that surrounds it.
There are over 130 different species of Australian wildlife to find around Cleland Wildlife Park. There are marsupials such as koalas, kangaroos, wombats, bettongs and potoroos, as well as dingoes, native birds, snakes, reptiles and even echidnas. The park allows visitors to purchase a bag of animal food so that you can feed the animals while you roam.
Cleland Wildlife Park is also one of the few places in the country where you can cuddle a koala. Other animal encounters include a breakfast date with the birds, keeper talks and night walks around the park to meet all the nocturnal creatures that call this place home.
