Perth Zoo is Getting a $3.8 Million Dollar Playground!
Designed to be inclusive of all abilities, the playground is expected to be completed by spring this year. The cutting-edge design is by landscape architect Hassell and Crothers Construction celebrates Perth Zoo's animals and conservation work and has let that inspire the design of this brand-new playspace.
Featuring a "cloud deck", climbable giant Numbat, rope tunnels, swinging ropes, feather hammocks, slides, audio spotlights, and more, the playground offers a unique and exciting play experience for every age and stage.
The "cloud deck" is the centrepiece of the playground and provides an elevated experience using bridges, tunnels, and ropes, while a mister system even simulates a cloud with model cockatoos flying overhead!

Features of the Masterplan include a Conservation Science Precinct, Orangutan Rainforest Precinct, African Savannah expansion, Primate Run, Cafe, Playground, Visitor Centre, and more.
