Thrilling adventures await in Hartley’s Crocodiles Adventures where you’ll get up close and personal to the famous reptilian predator: the crocodile! There are approximately two thousand metres of boardwalks and pathways that visitors can walk through or follow to visit different zones throughout the park.
Hartley’s Lagoon is where the main action happens, as it’s the best place to tour the wetlands and spot crocs in their natural habitat. Visit the Cassowary Walk to meet the flightless emblems of the region, or go to the Wildlife Discovery trail where freshwater crocodiles, lizards, and a walk-through bird aviary gives you a glimpse into the type of biodiversity in the local environment.
The commercial Crocodile Farm also allows visitors to learn how crocodile farming works and how it helps conserve the lives of these amazing reptiles. Finally, the Gondwana Gateway, illustrates an evolutionary process that describes how the unique fauna in Australia was shaped by time. It’s a day of adventure, learning, and discovery fit for the whole family!
