Haven for injured and abandoned Koalas. Great place to see koalas and to experience their unique pong.
Friendly and well informed staff will be happy to tell you all you need to know. Great family day out a few minutes from Brisbane.

Want to get up close and personal with platypus, snakes, native birds and fish, or even a wombat? Only a half hour bus ride from the city is a spectacular forest environment overlooking the Enoggera Reservoir. If you want to see untouched rainforest, take the road up to Mt Glorious and venture along some walking tracks like the one to Greene's Falls. It is most beautiful at sunrise.
