The Legend Continues Visiting Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary is a rite of passage. Founded in 1969, and opened to the public in 1985, Warrawong is the stuff of legends. Protected for over 30 years by the world's first feral proof fence, Warrawong is a stunning oasis for Australian animals. It offers peace and tranquility for inhabitants and visitors alike. Now the next generation can create their own memories, as so many have done before them.Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary is widely regarded as being home to the last Platypus on mainland South Australia. The 28 acres of Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary provide a safe haven for animals and people alike. Behind the feral proof fence, all creatures great and small are nurtured and protected, whether it be from predatory carnivores, or, in the case of humans, the stresses of modern life. BYO tent and bedding required. We have a fully functional kitchen and a BBQ as this is a fully self catered venue. Our overnight camps include your very own 45 minute Wildlife Show and a 1.5 hour guided Dusk Walk. We do have a minimum 8 person requirement to make a booking. So why not get some family and friends together and make a night of it? Conveniently located in the Adelaide Hills, Warrawong is thought to be the home of the only remaining platypus on mainland South Australia. The last confirmed sighting on the mainland was in 1975. The Sanctuary is also home to an abundance of other wildlife, including koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, bandicoots… In addition, over 100 species of birds have been sighted at Warrawong. The Sanctuary is the perfect destination for those who wish to see Australian animals in their natural environments.
