"Known internationally for its 22,000 rhododendrons, plus a curated collection of plants and trees organized into “countries”—complete with purpose-built lakes, waterfalls, bridges and gazebos—Emu Valley is a tranquil way to spend the day. You may even meet a local duck or grebe or, if you’re really lucky, an echidna or platypus. Not only a beautiful garden, it’s also a plant museum and heritage center: Many species of rhododendron have become endangered due to human activities."

What an amazing place! It’s bursting with color and textures everywhere you look. I was thrilled to spot two adorable platypuses in different lakes—such a fun surprise! The staff were incredibly friendly and shared some wonderful stories about the grounds that made the visit even more special.

Went for the Autumn Spectacular and it lived up to the name. Truly spectacular!! The colours were just incredible. Definitely recommend spending a couple of hours walking through the gardens, around the lake and just taking it all in.

Loved this garden with all the different areas and associated plants. It would have looked amazing when all the plants were flowering but we were on holiday so limited as to when we could visit . It was fantastic to watch a platypus in the large pond below the cafe. There was also a little grebe with chicks that were constantly calling. Whilst I was filming the platypus I looked down to see a large snake sunning itself on the soil inches from my feet.

Easy walking, choice of tracks. A variety of plants,and trees, lovely colours. We enjoyed lunch and then wandered the gardens. We were lucky to have a really good look at a Platypus in one of the lakes.

Started with lunch, excellent. We then strolled down to where the platypuses were. Then we went up and around and and should have taken a map. So many sights to see. Coming back again when they are in full bloom.

Lovely place to enjoy a good cup of tea with a scone at the Cafe which has a fantastic view of the garden and surrounding farm. This private garden covers quite a big plot of land and has several tracks of different level of accessibility and walking duration. There are many varieties of rhodendrons grouped into different regions as there are from various part of the world, mostly Asia. You need about 3 to 4 hours to thorough explore the garden.

A great place to spend 2-3 hours of your day! Delicious homemade scones and good barista-made coffee. Friendly and very helpful staff/volunteers – they're very happy to give you information about the gardens and their resident platypuses. And the gardens are lovely to walk in, even when the rhododendrons aren't in flower.

A beautiful place to walk around and so great to enjoy all the Autumn colours for photos. We finished off with lunch at the cafe which was great value and delicious 😋
