OPENING HOURS

Paradise Valley Springs is open every day of the year (365 days), including each and every public holiday such as Christmas Day, New Year's Day etc at our usual times.

We're open every day from 8am until dark, with last entry to the park at 5pm. Tickets must be purchased before 5pm to allow entry, then you are able to leave at any time until dark.

Your ticket also allows you to come in and out at any stage throughout the day.

LION FEEDING 2.30pm

Every day at 2.30pm our Lions are fed.

Our Lion feeding happens every day, no matter the weather.

Lions can lie around and sleep for up to 20 hours a day, so feeding time is a great time to get up close to our Lions, see them active and also learn a bit more about them all.

Feeding lasts for approximately 15-20 minutes.

KEA AND POSSUM FEEDING 3pm

We feed our kea and possum every day at 3pm, and you're welcome to come along.

Meet our kea (NZ's cheeky mountain parrot) and see how intelligent they are.

Next door lives our possum. Hear about the damage they cause to New Zealand's environment and native birds like the kea.
