It is not state government funded and all money raised through entry fees and memberships goes back into maintaining the Park. Araluen relies on a very small team of staff and volunteers to keep the Park open and maintained. We hope you understand sometimes it is not possible to remain open on some of the 11 WA public holidays per year. If you would like to discuss this further please contact us today.
