CAMPS team members, Jed and Tyla Elmer know a good camp when they see one! These Camps ‘detectives’ took their young tribe to Gunna Park. This is why they’d go back… 1.

When you drive to Wings Wildlife Park in Tasmania’s beautiful Gunns Plains make sure you stop at George Woodhouse lookout to soak up that gorgeous valley.
