In NSW it is illegal to hold a koala, however at our talks we will get you as close as possible tot he Koalas. We have a koala talks at 12pm and 2.30pm each day, or you can book a speed date, which is a 10 minute private encounter and times are available throughout the day, Please visit our website to make a booking. Thank you

Many people using wheelchairs visit our animals and they assure me that, although the paths are bumpy as the ground is compressed earth, they are doable. Many animals hang around the visitor centre so, if you don't want to go far, you can spend time with the free-ranging kangaroos and emus, as well as the koalas and the petting zoo animals. If you need any help you can ask any one of our staff to give you a hand. You won't however, be able to reach the Aboriginal sites as the bush paths are just natural tracks and there are also steps.

We are located about an hour north of Sydney, but we are not on a public transport route, therefore you will either need to drive, or catch hire a taxi, which can be exceptionally expensive. The closest station is Gosford. Please note that you may be able to get an Uber to the park, however they will not return you to the station. Walkabout Park is just a few hundred meters off the M1 Pacific Motorway just south of Gosford. Regards The Walkabout Team

Hi there; the rangers are extremely knowledgable and you'll surely get a lot out of a private tour with your two hour window. The park is small and you'll easily be able to walk about with comfort. The Koalas are very popular - and supper cute, and I think now days it is recognised they get stressed being handled lots by the public....So, ask the Keepers if you can handle the Koalas - if that's important to you. You can also check on line with other wild life parks if you can BOOK ahead and be guaranteed to be able to hold the Koalas if that is on You "bucket List". Good Luck...have a great time on your trip to Australia.

Australia Walkabout Wildlife Park is not on a public transport route and therefore the closest station is at Gosford, either train or bus. A taxi fare from Gosford is approximately $45 one way, so is pretty expensive. We suggest that a less expensive option for a group, is to book a hire car instead which is approximately $40.00 per day for a small car. If you do choose to drive, we are located approximately 1 hour north of Sydney off the M1, just south of Gosford. DO take the Calga Interchange exit from the M1 onto Peats Ridge Road, you will find the park on the left of Peats Ridge Road, just off the M1.
