Australia Snakes are something most people go out of their way to avoid, but not at the Australian Reptile Park. Located at the Gosford Interchange of the Sydney - Newcastle freeway near Old Sydney Town, the park has been relocated from its North Gosford residence of nearly 40 years, where it was first established by the late, famed snakeman, Eric Worrell . Here is a fascinating collection of reptiles of all descriptions as well as kangaroos, other mammals , and diverse and colourful birdlife .
Visitors can handfeed the kangaroos and wallabies and stroke some of the harmless snakes.
Come and see the life-saving work carried out by the Australian Reptile Park in the production of snake venom and spider venoms. The Australian Reptile Park is at the Gosford Interchange at Somersby on the Pacific Highway. Open 11.15 am. Reptile Show 12.45 p.m. Wombat Feed 1.00 pm.
