Aussie Ark welcomes general public during Summer School Holidays

Aussie Ark welcomes general public during Summer School Holidays
December 21, 2021

Conservation organisation, Aussie Ark - situated high in the spectacular NSW Barrington Tops - is welcoming the general public during the Summer School Holidays to share its passion for wildlife conservation.

While the conservation facility already runs small private tours each month, Aussie Ark hopes that by opening its doors for the school holidays, its team can encourage more people to join their conservation crusade.

Aussie Ark President, Tim Faulkner advises “open days are the perfect opportunities for our supporters to experience the conservation work that our team is doing every single day. I believe it is so important to show our supporters exactly what it is we do at Aussie Ark.

“Open days constitute a lot of work but it is so worth it! It is precious for our staff to be part of people’s journey to connect or reconnect with nature.”

Aussie Ark is two hours away from Scone, four hours from Newcastle and six hours from Sydney.

From January 1st to 30th 2022, visitors will have the opportunity to meet some of Australia’s most endangered species. Opening hours are from 11am – 2pm every single day with tours of the facility running at 11.30am and 12.45pm sharp.

Ticket prices are $35 per adult, $15 per child and $90 for a family to visit Aussie Ark during the school holidays. Tickets will be available at the door or online. For more information, visit aussieark.org.au
