Healesville Sanctuary is a native Australian animal zoo and also a breeding place for native animals and endangered species.The sanctuary is set in native bushland habitat for the wildlife of some 200 species, where you can have close encounters with kangaroos, koalas, wombats, dingos, native birds and platypus among others.

Have fun taking a ride on Puffing Billy, a beautifully preserved heritage steam train that winds it way through pristine forest, fern gullies and through the mountain ranges whilst marvelling at some spectacular scenery and sounds of the old train whistle blowing.
