Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary unveils a new multi-million dollar precinct, Outback Springs
Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary has been etched into childhood memories for generations. This week, just in time for the school holidays, the park welcomes Outback Springs, a brand-new precinct that promises a whole new experience for kids. The new multi-million area features a recreation of a traditional outback Queensland farming station with cute animal demonstrations and fun activities.
This Wednesday (December 6) Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary unveils Outback Springs, offering visitors a taste of the Australian outback. Set within Kangaroo Country, the new exhibition is based on a traditional outback Queensland farming station complete with gemstone panning, billy tea demonstrations and some encounters with furry friends of the cutest kind. According to Travis Couch, general manager of Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, the opening of Outback Springs signals the first stage of the most significant precinct investment in its 75 year history. “Outback Springs is a rustic outback experience for all ages to enjoy,” he said. “This coming year we will welcome over half a million guests to the Sanctuary from all over the world and we want them to be able to experience life in the Queensland outback without having to leave the Gold Coast.”
Among the new inhabitants will be some cute and cuddly miniature goats and bunny rabbits, alongside some less cuddly native spiders and even a slithery death adder. The precinct is the first stage of a larger project that will also see the opening of a traditional Australian ‘Queenslander’ called The Homestead. The state-of-the-art dining and event space will invite visitors to experience flavours of the Australian outback in a modern environment.
Outback Springs is now open! Head to Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary’s website for tickets.
