Canberra Walk-in Aviary

The Canberra Walk-in Aviary is a large walk-through bird enclosure located at Gold Creek Village in the suburb of Nicholls, north Canberra, Australian Capital Territory. Housing more than 500 birds representing over 60 species of Australian and exotic parrots, finches and other birds, it allows visitors to walk among free-flying birds. Established as a private aviary and tourist attraction, it is known for close interaction, hand-feeding opportunities and educational displays about bird conservation and behaviour.

Visitors enter a large landscaped walk-in aviary where Australian and exotic birds fly freely around them. The enclosure features planted gardens, ponds, bridges and feeding stations. Visitors can walk along internal paths, observe parrots, lorikeets, finches and other species at close range, purchase seed to hand-feed birds, and learn from informative signage and staff talks about bird behaviour and care. The experience is interactive, family-friendly and largely under cover.
