Entertainment & Activities
Paradise Valley Springs is a favourite of ours (and has been since our children were young).
Spend a few hours strolling through the park feeding the animals and viewing trout and native birds.
If you stay on til 2.30 you'll catch lion-feeding followed by bird and possum feeding.
Well worth the drive (approx. 20mins).
