Come to the Greener Wilder West and join Tom and his team from Hooked on Nature on a 1.5 hrs guided adventure through Plough and Harrow.

Dusk is a wonderful time to spot animals in the Australian Bush. The Park is home to a variety of nocturnal creatures - from brushtail possums, to microbats, tawny frogmouths, and grey-headed flying-foxes. Experience the wonderful atmosphere when one set of park inhabitants go to sleep and the others wake up!
