Leaving from Peak Lodge, your flight will take you over the Little Liverpool Range before arriving at Spicers Hidden Vale. Embark upon a guided 2-hour Koala Experience where you will explore parts of the 12,000 acre property to find koala hotspots and assist researchers in checking the welfare of the koala community.
