The TYTO Wetlands is a haven for nature enthusiasts, boasting over 230 species of permanent and seasonal birds. With 4kms of well-maintained walking tracks, four dedicated bird viewing platforms, seating areas and diverse ecosystems, it offers a tranquil retreat for bird lovers and adventurers alike.
The diversity of birdlife at TYTO Wetlands is astounding, rivalling that of the iconic Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory—yet it’s packed into an area 18,000 times smaller. Remarkably, this compact sanctuary is home to 27.4% of all Australian bird species in one location.
Visitors can enhance their experience with maps, bird lists, and local tips available at the Hinchinbrook Visitor Information Centre. Whether you're an avid birdwatcher, photographer, or simply enjoy the serenity of nature, TYTO Wetlands is an unmissable destination.
