This exciting experience allows our guests the opportunity to have a very personal encounter with our Common Wombat, Fred, in his enclosure. Guests will be able to enter the enclosure and pat, feed and take close-up photos with Fred, whilst our knowledgeable keeper gives a unique insight into this intriguing species.

Wombats are perfectly designed for digging with their short legs, broad feet and sharp claws. They are able to dig extensive burrow systems of over 100m in length, and can run at up to 40kph.


Price includes entry to the park.
