Friends of Warrawong

A safe haven for rare and endangered species.

Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary was first established in 1969 when dairy land was revegetated with native trees and shrubs to attract native animals and birds. In 1982 the 35 acres was enclosed with feral-proof fencing. Once the fence was completed, the bird population flourished and the release of many native animals began. Today, Warrawong is home to 100 species of birds and many native mammals. Warrawong offers a unique opportunity to get amongst the Australian bush and wildlife in a protected habitat. This wildlife park in Adelaide is only 20 minutes from the city, so make a trip to Warrawong, one of your things to do!  Warrawong means:  water on the side of the hill, so don't expect anything but a good incline to descend and come back up....

Warrawong, naturally the venue for your next:

*Conference *weekend away *weekend outing with the family *romantic dinner *afternoon tea or coffee *special occassion celebration *end of year or Christmas function*
