Hindmarsh Falls

10 min to 15 min

Hindmarsh Falls

10 min to 15 min

Starting from the car park at the end of Hindmarsh Falls Road, Hindmarsh Valley, this walk takes you to Hindmarsh Falls and back. Enjoy a short and easy walk through stunning native bushland to Hindmarsh Falls, an attractive series of cascades and pools that culminate in a 20-metre drop, which can be viewed from a lookout at the end of the path. Along the way, the walk passes a grassy picnic area with wooden tables and a gas barbecue. The picturesque falls are fed by the Hindmarsh River catchment area between Mount Cone and Spring Mount, flowing down through Victor Harbor and out to sea via the Hindmarsh Estuary, and are best viewed in winter and spring or after heavy rainfall. The upper car park is smaller, while the lower car park is adjacent to a picnic area. This walk consists of well-constructed sealed paths, with handrails and some steps, suitable for most fitness levels, but not for prams or wheelchairs. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.

Mount Billy Hike

5.8 km circuit

1 h 30 min to 2 h

Mount Billy Hike

1 h 30 min to 2 h

45 min to 1 h 15 min

Starting from the Gate 1 car park on Hindmarsh Tiers Road, Hindmarsh Valley, this walk takes you on a circuit around Mount Billy Conservation Park via the Mount Billy Hike. Mount Billy Conservation Park features some of the best-preserved mallee and forest communities in the Mount Lofty Ranges, with low sheoak woodlands and tall forests of pink and blue gum that provide habitat for many native species of birds and animals. In spring, especially in the northern section, there's an abundance of wildflowers and orchids. This hike begins in the higher section of the park, passing through some of the varied vegetation communities, with a gradual descent to the lower section before a short steep climb to the peak of Mount Billy, which offers sweeping views across rolling green hills towards Victor Harbor, as far as the Bluff. This loop consists of well-signposted sandy fire tracks, with some short steep hills and uneven natural surfaces, suitable for average fitness levels. For a shorter option, the Banksia Hike is also accessible from the trailhead. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
