Best Things to Do in Canberra, with baby

Raiders Gungahlin is 43% Baby-Friendly

Babies are allowed, yet no listed nursing room or change table, noise from bars and limited pram info make visits possible but inconvenient; call ahead for facilities.

Recommended visit duration: 1-2 hours

Black Mountain Nature Reserve is 40% Baby-Friendly

Parents with a carrier can enjoy lookout picnics, yet rough trails block strollers, and there are no on-site toilets or change rooms; nearest facilities are 1 km away in the Botanic Gardens.

Recommended visit duration: 0.5-1 day

Harmonie German Club is 40% Baby-Friendly

Babies may enter, but there are no high chairs, change tables, or nursing rooms, some dining seats are upstairs, and amplified music can be loud, so bring gear and confirm access first.

Recommended visit duration: 2-3 hours

Mount Taylor Nature Reserve is 39% Baby-Friendly

A flat picnic spot near the car park allows brief pram use, but prams cannot handle main trails; with no toilets, shade or change facilities, carers must carry the infant and essentials, making longer visits uncomfortable.

Recommended visit duration: 1-2 hours

iPlay Belconnen is 34% Baby-Friendly

All games need active play, so a baby only sits in a pram amid loud lights and music. You must leave for Westfield parents’ rooms to feed or change, making the visit possible but tiring for carers.

KFC Lookout Belconnen is 33% Baby-Friendly

Parents can duck into Westfield Parents’ Room for feeds and changes, but the grassy verge is not pram-friendly, unshaded and near traffic, so visits with a baby are short and awkward.

Hijinx Hotel Canberra is 33% Baby-Friendly

Infants are too young for the games; carers must hold or park the pram while playing, and although a parents room exists, no high chairs or baby gear are advertised, limiting comfort and activities.

Llewellyn Hall is 30% Baby-Friendly

Babies over 12 months need a paid seat, prams stay outside, no nursing or change room, and loud, lengthy performances may distress infants; check venue for rare baby-friendly shows.

Mount Stromlo Observatory is 30% Baby-Friendly

Babies are permitted, yet there are no toilets, change tables or nursing rooms, gravel paths jolt strollers, and night programs run late and cold, so only brief daylight visits are realistic.

BlocHaus Bouldering Fyshwick | Canberra is 29% Baby-Friendly

Under-5s may only spectate; no verified nursing room or change table, busy mats and falling climbers pose risk, so parents can climb but babies gain little and need 1:1 watch all visit.
