Ben's Walk

Reviewed By HPScottie - Sydney, Australia

Bens walk is a lovely walk along the Shoalhaven river. There are some rocky parts and steep inclines, so good footwear is important. The scenery and sounds of nature are lovely. There is also some aboriginal art to spot along the way. The walk is dog friendly and must be on a leash at all times. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Shoalhaven Zoo

Reviewed By Marnie123XYZ

What a wonderful zoo! The animals are happy and healthy. We had a fabulous visit last week. Lots of animals to see, spacious, easy-walking paths. Opportunities to feed most of the animals--including kangaroos and wallabies. Photo opportunity to pose with a koala and hold a baby wombat. Don't miss this treasure!!!

Coolendel

Reviewed By W2389YRheidib

If you like camping, this is the place for you. Pitch a tent and enjoy the peace and serenity. I spent some of my school holidays here with family & friends and miss it. There’s rapids, kayaking, bushwalking. The facilities are good with showers, toilets, taps, bbq and more. There’s plenty of wildlife to see including goanna, wombat, peacock and more.
