There are not that many kids who do not like animals. How about seeing completely tamed donkeys? These cute animals wait for new guests in the Highfield Garden Reserve that is located between Algies Bay and Snells Beach. Here, your kids will be able to look, pet, cater, and feed charming animals. Having finished with donkeys, use a trail to reach the beach. Or the opposite – get to the top of the hill and admire spectacular panoramic views. Teenagers will like an opportunity to make wonderful selfies. Children are usually also excited to guide a kite – it is comfortable in this area since there are no high trees. The pond, which is located in the reserve, is full of charming animals.
