The Adelaide Hills make a great destination for a family holiday. You can take the kids to see native animals at the Cleland Wildlife Park. Here you can see kangaroos, koalas, wallabies and more in natural habitat enclosures. There are also hands-on experiences with Koalas as well as a reptile enclosure.
The Big Rocking Horse has been another family favourite for many years. In the great Australian tradition of "big" things, this large rocking horse is located at Gumeracha. The site not only features the oversize attraction but also a wooden toy factory and shop, making it perennially popular with kids. The whole family is sure to enjoy the National Motor Museum at Birdwood, which has a large permanent display of vintage and antique cars as part of educational exhibitions.
