Easy Burnie: Wings Wildlife Park & Countryside Drive

Your half-day adventure begins at the ship's pier as you board your motorcoach to the scenic countryside of Gunns Plains, known for its rich red volcanic soil and agricultural bounty. Along the way, enjoy views of lush farmland, vineyards, and rugged landscapes including glimpses of Leven Canyon and Cradle Mountain, part of the Tasmanian World Heritage Area.
Your destination is Wings Wildlife Park, a haven for injured and native animals, boasting one of Tasmania's most extensive collections of wildlife. Here, you'll have the unique opportunity to interact with a variety of animals-get up close with Tasmanian Devils, wallabies, and many others including exotic species, birds, reptiles, and aquatic creatures. Informative guides throughout the park offer insights into the animals' behaviors, habitats, and conservation efforts.
Before leaving, visit the gift shop for a special souvenir. On your return, enjoy a scenic drive through the charming town of Penguin, known for its namesake Fairy Penguins and a giant penguin statue, and Ulverstone, a picturesque beachside town. Relax and reflect on your unforgettable wildlife encounters as you journey back to the pier.
