The Kangaroo Sanctuary

The Kangaroo Sanctuary is located on a 188-acre wildlife reserve just outside of Alice Springs. Owned by Chris 'Brolga' Barnes, it is fulfilling his life-long dream of a sanctuary that is home to orphaned kangaroos. Most of the rescued kangaroos have been rehabilitated to the wild, however some have learnt to love humans too much and remain permanently at the sanctuary. Take the sunset guided tour (Tuesday to Friday) throughout our reserve and meet the Kangaroo characters from Kangaroo Dundee (BBC/Nat Geo Series). Our motto is Animals Come First!

Reviewed By inpsyght - Broken Hill, Australia

After having visited all the art galleries in Todd Mall, on a recent trip to Alice Springs, I was very impressed by a visit to the Yubu Napa Art Gallery in nearby Hartley Street. Their range of artists and artistic styles was better by far than anything I saw at the other galleries. It also provided a friendlier environment for Indigenous artists to do their work on-site.
