Description

The Australian Botanic Gardens are located in Shepparton, showcasing native Australian plants. The gardens were developed on a former landfill site that has been transformed into a natural area. The gardens feature various themed areas and native bush landscapes, including wetlands. There is a range of trails through the gardens. You can climb up high to the top of Honeysuckle Rise where the lookout offers an expansive view above the treetops across local landscapes.

Walk the paths of the Billabong and River Walks to see kookaburras, kingfishers, honeyeaters, rosellas and more. In the Native Forest Walk you’ll find fairy-wrens, robins, wattlebirds and other colourful species. Wander around the Wetlands to see herons, egrets, ducks, spoonbills, and other waterbirds.
