Showcasing the largest private collection of native fauna in Western Australia, Caversham Wildlife Park invites you to experience magical close encounters with Australia’s cutest inhabitants.

Here’s your chance to hand-feed kangaroos and have your photo taken with a koala. Watch the penguins being fed, enjoy wandering through the Reptile House, and play with the farm animals at Molly’s Farm.

A hugely popular interactive experience is ‘Meet the Wombat and Friends’ – with around 20 Australian species to meet and learn about, it is fun and educational.

Another attraction not to miss is the Farm Show, where the country comes to town! Watch mustering sheepdogs, sheep shearing, swinging the billy, milking the cow and bottle feeding the lambs.

With about 200 species and 2000 individuals, this is the largest private collection of native animals in Western Australia. There is something for everyone at Caversham Wildlife Park.

Situated at the heart of Whiteman Park in the Swan Valley, it’s less than a 30-minute drive northeast of Perth to reach the wildlife park.

Once you’ve snapped plenty of great family memories, head into the surrounding Whiteman Park to enjoy some of the many other attractions within the park.
