Bird watching

Swipe to find some of the many birds you'll see at Araluen, read captions for names.

Best birdwatching spots:

  • Contour Walk from the Chalet, through the rose garden, the adjacent bush, Westrek Bridge, and along the creek – often several different insectivorous birds.
  • The lawn area and its edges adjacent to the Mary Hargreaves Pergola - birds that like a bit of safe, sunny open space.
  • From the Entry Car Park down to and by Stinton Creek, the Roundhouse then upstream as far as Forest View
