Bundoora Park Farm

Last updated February 2026

Bundoora Park Farm is a popular hands-on animal experience located at Bundoora Park in Melbourne's north. Set within expansive parklands, it offers families a chance to engage with a variety of farm animals in a semi-rural setting. Visitors can get up close with residents like sheep, goats, cows, alpacas, and even some native Australian wildlife. The pathways are generally paved, making it manageable for prams and wheelchairs. It's an ideal destination for children to learn about where their food comes from and interact with creatures they might otherwise only see in books. **What to Bring** Sunscreen, hats, water bottles, snacks, comfortable walking shoes, change of clothes for younger children. **Best Age Range** Toddlers through to early primary school age children, around 2–8 years old, will find the most enjoyment interacting with the animals. Older children may appreciate the park setting and open space more. **Good to Know** There is ample parking available within Bundoora Park. While entry to the farm itself is free, some special events may have a fee. There are picnic areas and a playground nearby. The park is open daily, though animal feeding times can vary. **Nearby** Adjacent to the farm is the extensive Bundoora Park, offering playgrounds, picnic spots, and walking tracks. The nearby Darebin Parklands also provides a bushland experience with walking trails. **Tips From Other Parents** Pack some coins if you want to purchase animal feed when available. Weekday mornings are generally quieter than weekends. Allow time to explore the wider Bundoora Park area after visiting the farm.
