Koala close-up
Great News!
Our koalas have fully recovered from their skin condition, and we are excited to announce the koala up-close experience (where you can meet and touch some of the park's friendliest residents, but not hold) is now being held every day between 11am-12 noon and 2pm-3pm.
Details
Koalas are one of the most recognisable Australian animals, they are known and loved worldwide.
Cleland is famous for its koala experiences – every day you can get up close to one of our koalas. You will have the opportunity to feel its fur, learn about their unique features and take photos standing next to the koala.
They take place twice daily, from 11am - 12pm and 2pm - 4pm. Private sessions are available.
Bookings are not required. Health and safety conditions apply.
