About Barna Mia
Barna Mia is a nocturnal wildlife sanctuary and visitor facility located within Dryandra Woodland National Park in the Shire of Cuballing, Western Australia, about 170 km southeast of Perth. Operated by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, it provides guided night tours inside a predator-free enclosure where visitors can observe threatened native marsupials such as woylies, bilbies, mala and boodies. It serves as a key site for conservation, education and wildlife recovery programs.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a guided nocturnal tour inside a fenced, predator-free sanctuary within Dryandra Woodland. Tours depart after sunset with a guide using low red light to view threatened marsupials including woylie, bilby, mala and boodie as they forage. The experience includes an introductory presentation at the visitor centre, quiet walking along paths inside the enclosure, wildlife interpretation, and opportunities for low-light observation in a natural woodland setting.
