Wildlife GUIDED Walks come to Cape Conran
East Gippsland Victoria Australia
A new tour guiding service is being offered to visitors to Cape Conran Coastal Park (on the Far East Gippsland Wilderness Coast). The area boasts a huge number of animals and plants for the keen explorer.
The staff at Cape Conran Cabins and Camping ground will help visitors experience the area’s unique ecology.
14 years ago Cape Conran was chosen as a site to trial a wildlife protection and monitoring program. The results were astounding to all who experienced the transformation as a result of the program. Reducing the numbers of introduced foxes (to virtually none) began a rebound of small marsupials and an unknown number of other animals. The program (run by DSE) has been so successful that it has been rolled out throughout all of East Gippsland, and is now the largest wildlife management program on the East Coast of Australia.
For visitors to the area this means a wildlife experience like no other. A guiding service is being operated, out of the popular Cape Conran Cabins and Camping ground.
Animals and flora you may hope to see or hear include: Long-nose Bandicoots, Long-nose Potoroos, Wombats, White Bellied Sea Eagle’s , Ground Parrots, Goannas, Sugar Gliders, Powerful Owls, and Banksia and Mahogany Forest and rich diverse heath-land wildflowers…
You may be asked to help in collecting data for wildlife research.
Times: Walks operate at just before sunrise and sunset (approximately an hour each). Time varies depending on time of the year and animals targeted by guides.
Equipment needed: Torches, binoculars, insect repellent/long sleeves and pants, shoes/boots.
