Territory Wildlife Park

OVERVIEW

Visit a 1,000-acre natural bushland park where every manner of Aussie wildlife can be encountered. After a scenic coach drive from Darwin to Territory Wildlife Park, you’ll be oriented by park staff equipped with maps and helpful suggestions, then see loose to chart your own preferred course through the array of native animal exhibits and experiences available here. There’s no need to hike the four miles of trails that wind among the woodlands, wetlands and tropical forest, either – shuttles circulate around the entire park, providing informative commentary as they move from one stop to another. Among the most popular are the underwater walk-through aquarium, where you’re surrounded by gliding whip rays and other colorful marine life, and a Nocturnal House that offers a rare glimpse into the curious lives and habits of many species seldom seen in the wild. Another special enclosure holds impressive scheduled performances where the park’s birds of prey show off their skills in full flight. At a pre-determined time, you’ll return to the designated pick-up point for the return to Darwin.
