Holidaying with Kangaroos

We are very lucky to have several families of wild Kangaroos who visit our park regularly. You will often see them resting under a shady tree during the day and grazing in the morning and evenings in and around your cabins and sites.

The kangaroos in the park are very used to having their photo taken but we do ask that you keep a distance of about 10m from them. Please supervise your children closely to ensure that they do not try to get to close to them.

While the risk of being attacked by a kangaroo is extremely low and to date, we have never had an incidence in the park, they are wild, powerful and unpredictable creatures. A kangaroo might attack if they see a person as a threat to themselves, their group or their offspring.

To avoid conflict, do not walk directly up to a kangaroo, stand up tall, stare or hold your arms out. These actions say that you want to fight. Please leave them alone if they are sparring, growling or clucking or looking agitated.
