Animal farm

A day out on the farm

Feed the lambs, collect the eggs and ride the tractor train on a working family farm.

Wild Paddock is a working farm an hour from the city where children can get close to the animals. Bottle-feed a lamb, brush a pony, collect eggs from the hen house and meet the alpacas.

What you can do

The tractor train runs through the paddocks on the hour. Bring gumboots in winter and a picnic any time: there are tables under the gums and a kiosk for coffee and ice cream.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if it rains?

The farm is open in all weather. The animal nursery and the barn are under cover, and the tractor train has a roof.

Can we bring our dog?

Sorry, no. Dogs unsettle the animals, so only assistance animals can come in.
