🦘🐨💕Up Close with Kangaroos at Lone Pine Sanctuary

📍 Address 708 Jesmond Rd, Fig Tree Pocket QLD 4069, Australia 🌿 Ambiance / Facilities Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary is a peaceful and well-kept wildlife park just outside Brisbane. Surrounded by nature, it’s perfect for a relaxing half-day trip. The layout is easy to navigate, with shaded paths, picnic areas, and a small riverside café where you can rest and enjoy the view. 🧸 Highlights We didn’t hug a koala, but we got to see them up close — they’re so calm and adorable! 🐨 The most memorable part was feeding kangaroos and sitting with them for photos. The kangaroos are very friendly and chill — they don’t mind people getting close at all. We also saw wombats, emus, dingoes, and even a platypus. It’s a great way to see iconic Australian animals in a natural setting. 💰 Avg. Price per Person General Admission: Around AUD $49 Kangaroo food: Around AUD $2 ⭐ Rating 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 (5/5) An unforgettable experience! Great for animal lovers and perfect for anyone visiting Brisbane. It felt peaceful and magical to be so close to nature and Australia’s unique wildlife.#brisbane #zoo

Brisbane’s Best in 48 Hours: City Icons & Aussie Wildlife 🐨✨ Kick off your Brisbane adventure with the iconic Brisbane Sign in South Bank — perfect for creative group shots and skyline selfies, especially at sunrise or sunset when the colors pop! Next, head up to the Mount Coot-Tha Summit Lookout (1012 Sir Samuel Griffith Dr), open all day for jaw-dropping city and river views. It’s an insta-worthy spot, particularly at golden hour, and a top spot to grab a coffee at the summit café. Dive into downtown greenspace at Post Office Square (270 Queen St), a relaxing spot for lunch or people-watching between city explorations. Not far away, pay homage to Queensland’s history at Anzac Square & Memorial Galleries (285 Ann St). Visit early in the week (open 10:00-16:00 Mon-Fri, Sun) for quiet reflection and to catch the moving war memorial displays. On your second day, venture out to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary (708 Jesmond Rd, Fig Tree Pocket), a must for animal lovers. Cuddle a koala, feed kangaroos, and snap photos with sleepy marsupials—don’t miss the adorable “koala cuddle” photo op! Arrive when doors open at 9:00 to beat the bus tours and enjoy a relaxed pace. Bring water and comfy shoes as you’ll be walking lots! My tip: Space these highlights across two days so you can really soak up the atmosphere—each site deserves lingering, not rushing. Lone Pine has a fee (278.0), but it's worth every dollar for a classic Aussie experience! #Brisbane #CityGuide #MountCootTha #KoalaSanctuary #TravelTips
