Cascade Trail

1.9 km circuit

30 min to 45 min

30 min to 45 min

Starting from the car park at the end of Mount George Road, Mount George, this walk takes you on a circuit around Mount George Conservation Park via the Cascade Trail. This moderately challenging loop initially follows the Heysen Trail, passing a dam and crossing the Tiersmen Bridge over Cox Creek, a picturesque creek that winds its way through the park. From there, the walk climbs steeply along the Cascade Trail, then briefly follows the Leah Fire Track before following the Timbercutters Trail and the Heysen Trail back to the picnic area. Walkers may see nesting superb fairywrens in the gully of Cascade Creek, and in winter, there are views of babbling cascades along the creek. This loop consists of narrow walking trails and fire tracks, with uneven natural surfaces, compacted natural surfaces and short steep hills, suitable for average fitness levels. 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.
