Being in Australia without meeting any kangaroo, it\u2019s like you don\u2019t see and know a thing about this country. Ok, I exaggerate a bit, but for sure all wildlife lovers (like me) don\u2019t want to miss an opportunity to meet with this special animal.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kangaroos are epic for Australia, but in reality, it\u2019s not so easy to find them in nature. You have to know the places where they live.<\/p>\n

\"Here
Here are my favorite places where you can play with kangaroos in their natural environment.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Merry Beach, NSW<\/h2>\n

The best of all. It\u2019s almost guaranteed that kangaroos will be there every afternoon, at the morning and during the night. There are dozens of kangaroos around the camping (Merry Beach Caravan Resort). Starting from the baby kangaroos to the quite huge males. They are very familiar with people and it\u2019s possible to come close to them and cuddle a little. The extra bonus is that this camping is beautifully placed right on beach. Sleeping there with the sounds of the waves it\u2019s priceless. Merry Beach camping is one of my favorite places in Australia. It has everything you need to spend a fantastic weekend. You have a nature, sea and wildlife in the same time. Simply great.\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n

Morisset Hospital<\/h2>\n

This place was tricky to find. I\u2019ve spent some time on different forums to find a nice spot to show kangaroos to my friends from Europe. The place wasn\u2019t very obvious, because the area where kangaroos were living belonged to the hospital. It had a huge garden and forest where you can meet kangaroos. However, you need to be there before 7pm, until the gate is being closed. After the main gate, just drive straight ahead and you will meet plenty of kangaroos jumping around the main road. The best time to go there is late afternoon because it\u2019s their time to seek for food.\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n

Kangaroo Valley<\/h2>\n

There are two places to see kangaroos in Kangaroo Valley. A Bendeela Recreation Area and the\u00a0Man from Kangaroo Valley<\/em>\u00a0horse farm. You can see a variety of wild animals around both of them. It\u2019s more possible to see kangaroos an early morning. Beyond that, if you are lucky you will see wombats, which are adorable. I know from my Australian friends, that seeing a wombat in nature it\u2019s not a common thing for an average Aussie. That\u2019s why you will have stories to share J<\/p>\n

If you like to ride a horse, you can try a really nice horse trekking organized by the horse farm. When you arrive there, you will have an opportunity to see kangaroos almost everywhere! They jump around on the fields, so you will have a nice combo \u2013 a horse riding and kangaroos\u2019 show. It\u2019s a very Aussie experience.\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n
