Starting from the car park on Allendale Road, Barossa Goldfields, this circuit track gives you a tour of the northwestern parts of Para Wirra Conservation Park via the Victoria Hill Circuit Track, visiting Bowden Cottage along the way. This trail takes walkers through the remains of the once-thriving mining town of Victoria Hill, which was bustling in the late 1860s. The trail features interpretive signs that tell the story of the Barossa Goldfields, as well as old mine shafts and workings. Bowden Cottage is a must-visit, with its mining equipment display, the Barossa Goldfields Historical Society museum, and picnic shelters and toilets. Walking this well-maintained path in the counterclockwise direction is recommended. Dogs are allowed on lead. Walkers need to be careful and stick to the trail, as there are dangerous and deep mine shafts in the area. 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.
