Why We Love This Unique Experience

Shepparton Experience Gifts: Spend a picturesque day out in the Mexican-inspired, desert oasis that is Cactus Country. Perfect for an amateur botanist or anyone looking to bring a prickle of spice into their life. 

Just a few hours drive from Melbourne, you will spend your day in a 12 acre cactus garden, marvelling at hundreds of specimens of plants in an other-worldly location. The Australian bush takes on a completely different character here as you’re surrounded by these beautiful living sculptures. You can take one of eight winding trails, weaving you way through prickly giants. There are many wonderful photo opportunities in this unique setting. This impressive cactus collection dates back to before 1979 with cacti brought from all over the world. After soaking up the sun, you can enjoy a cold margarita at the Mexican restaurant or a slice of cactus cake. 

This self-guided tour of Cactus Country is a rejuvenating day-out for the whole family, and makes a great experience gift for nature-lovers.
