Escape to Owlcatraz


The iconic Owlcatraz is an amazing Native Bird and Wildlife Park situated on the outskirts of Shannon in the sunny Horowhenua and is a credit to the vision and hard work of our vendors. It is a haven for Native New Zealand birds including Ruru (Morepork), Weka, Piwakawaka (Fantail), Tui and Pukeko. A network of paths allows visitors to wander through the pristine native bush and enjoy the wildlife on a guided tour. Other attractions are Lake Owlsmere, a beautiful lake and wetland area where you can feed the Eels and Ducks and The Wairuru Glow Worm Caves. The three meandering streams are complemented by a stone bridge and waterwheel.

The Owlcatraz Farm is home to Donkeys, Alpacas, Fallow Deer, Sheep, Cattle and Oha Kune the Pig while the fully-fenced Play and Picnic Area has Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Lorikeets and Finches. Children will be lining up to take a ride on Thomas the Miniature Train.

The Reception area and Gift Shop make management a breeze.

The property comprises a lovely freshly-decorated four-bedroom home on 6.67Ha (more or less) of land.
