Family favourite - set aside a few hours to wander through the grounds. Tours and Animal encounter experiences are available to book. The Rhino Cafe is close to the playground, so the littles can enjoy what is arguably Canberra's best playground while the bigs can get a bite to eat and a coffee.

For the science lovers there is literally no better place to go. Ideal for school aged kids. Also within walking distance of many of the other attractions within the Parliamentary triangle, including Old Parliament House, the National Gallery and the National Library.

Trees, walking trails and views aplenty. Lots to do for the whole family. The Cafe has tasty food and coffee, though very busy during peak times. It also has another one of Canberra's most epic playgrounds, suitable for the very small and bigger kids too.

Looking for a cozy spot with great coffee and tasty food (and a decent playground, if you need it) all in the one place? This cafe is worth checking out. It is a nice setting to set up to check some emails for work or to catchup with a group. There is a well stocked IGA next door too, with a good selection of local Canberra goods as well.
