We had a fabulous time visiting The National Zoo and Aquarium during our Canberra adventure. The National Zoo and Aquarium is wheelchair accessible, with step free pathways, ramps and flat cemented walking paths throughout, which makes it super easy to explore the zoo for those in wheelchairs or with limited mobility.
The zoo is one of the major tourist attractions in the ACT. It sits on 19 hectares, and includes an indoor Aquarium which is one of the largest inland saltwater tanks in Australia. The zoo has a various selection of animals that call the zoo home, from native Australian animals to the more exotic animals like the Malaysian Sun Bear. The National zoo is focused on conservation, animal protection and education.
