Where to See Wild Koalas

Koala Spotting Guide โ†’

Around 300 koalas live high in the canopy of Narranderaโ€™s Flora and Fauna Reserve, part of the longest continuous tract of River Red Gum Forest in the world. Itโ€™s one of Australiaโ€™s most successful conservation stories โ€” a once lost population now a thriving colony.

Before you head out, visit the Destination and Discovery Hub for seasonal advice, recent sightings, and practical tips. For a guaranteed sighting, visit in spring during the annual Koala Festival.
