What are some popular attractions for families in Dubbo?

Dubbo is a draw for families with kids thanks to the open-range Taronga Western Plains Zoo, home to more than 5,000 animals. Visitors can explore via golf cart or bicycle, or choose a behind-the-scenes, after-hours tour with a glamping package. The Old Dubbo Gaol is also popular among families, with costumed performances during school holidays. Meanwhile, Australian history buffs love Dundullimal Slab Homestead, one of the oldest homes in western New South Wales, and nature lovers head down to the Macquarie River for a dip and to see ancient carvings in Terramungamine Reserve.
