Embark on an extraordinary journey through the magnificent Kiwi Park, a 5-acre oasis in the bustling heart of Queenstown.

A family-owned and operated wildlife centre in the heart of Queenstown, dedicated to saving our endangered wildlife species. We have over 20 species of native wildlife, including New Zealand’s national icon, the Kiwi and our living fossil, the Tuatara.

The Kiwi Park is set in beautifully landscaped native bush and is the perfect place for a relaxed break from the hustle and bustle of downtown Queenstown.

By visiting Kiwi Park you are directly supporting our conservation efforts!

Chill out in our cafe and browse our gift shop, where a portion of proceeds go towards our conservation work.

Kiwi Park

We really enjoyed all aspects of the park. The show was really informative and entertaining, and actually saw kiwis in the kiwi house. A great range of native wildlife, full of birdsong and lovely bush to walk around in. A must see.
