I went to Trowunna with my husband and nearly 3 month old. As it’s an open grass park it is suitable for a pram (and we brought ours) and had no issue navigating one around the park (small hills and rocks). As we went in the morning in winter it was still dewy so obviously our pram wheels got massively dirty from grass, dirt and roo poo but was easily washed off ( if this is an issue for you suggest leaving the stroller in the car). We got there at 9.30am and did the 11am tour. As we were there so early and it was winter we basically had the entire park to itself. This was great as we could do the park at our own pace. There was also a lot of kangaroos in the morning and the pack of kangaroos appeared to have disappeared into the bush after the 11am tour. So if you are keen to feed lots of kangaroos then suggest getting to the park at least at 10.30am (note kangaroo feed is extra charge - $3). Highly recommend attending the tour which was about 30 minutes to 45 minutes. The guide was very informative and included a talk and wombat walk / pats and a tassie devil talk / pat and feeding. I know years ago they use to be able to hold a wombat but they don’t seem to do this anymore. If you are squimish, suggest looking away during the tassie devil feeding as this gets quite bloody as they feed a group a wallaby (also skin is in tact after feeding and is shown to the group).

Fantastic experience, we arrived at the ranger station and advised by ranger as to various tours available and degree of difficulty (climbing stairs etc) were able to book a tour for King Solomans cave as well.

A fantastic experience by our tour guide Aaron, he was so informative, his enthusiasm was like a breath of fresh air, he was like the Dr. David Bellamy of caves, and his knowledge was enlightening to say the least, thank you Aaron for such a wonderful tour. Irene & Charles
