All guided tours meander along walking trails and follow boardwalks through the sanctuary. Tours are 90 minutes in duration. While entry to the sanctuary is free, there are fees for guided walks and bird shows.
You can also dine at the Bilby Café, with a view of Australian wildlife from your table. In winter you can enjoy the warmth of an open fire, while in summer you can stroll on the decking, offering views across Warrawong and the Adelaide Hills. There’s also a gift shop.
Warrawong Sanctuary caters for functions and conferences, and accommodation in tent cabins.
Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary was established in 1969 when dairy land was revegetated with native trees and shrubs to attract native animals and birds. In 1982 the 35 acres was enclosed with feral-proof fencing. Once the fence was completed, the bird populations flourished and the release of many native animals began.
