Located approx 250kms from Melbourne, you'll find this incredible 12 acre desert wonderland.
With thousands of different cacti and succulent species from around the globe, you'll be sure to be amazed at mother natures creations.
Walking through the sandy trails, you'll witness Bee's, including the blue-banded bee and different bird species pollinating the gorgeous cacti flowers, you'll also see little lizards hiding in the sandy gardens.
The staff are super friendly, there are activities for kids, a gift shop so you can create your own desert landscape right at home, you can book in for photo shoots, this place is unreal.
They even make a delicious cactus ice cream and cactus cake from their very own Prickly Pear, it tastes fantastic.
Also, Cactus Country are dog friendly π
After a couple of years of wanting to get out here, I finally made it and it did not disappoint.
I can't wait to visit again, next time at a later time of the day as the sun was too high when we were there so every photo is super bright.
I'm still learning about cacti and succulents, I'll try to id what I can but if I get it wrong, please correct me π
