Starting from Onkaparinga Valley Road, Oakbank, this walk takes you to Mount Torrens via the Amy Gillett Bikeway. The Amy Gillett Bikeway is a shared-use path for walkers, cyclists and horse riders that connects the towns of Oakbank, Woodside, Charleston and Mount Torrens, providing a lovely way to spend a day in the Adelaide Hills. Named after Australian professional cyclist Amy Gillett, the bikeway follows the former Mount Pleasant railway line through undulating hillsides, passing small towns nestled between vineyards and farmland, with a wide array of shops and interesting places to visit along the way. The bikeway is popular with both serious and casual cyclists, featuring an excellent sealed surface, gentle gradient and several seats for rest stops, and is also great for walks or family-friendly bike rides in shorter sections. This trail consists of gently sloping bitumen paths, suitable for all bike types and fitness levels, and can be comfortably started from either end. Keep a lookout for the blue 'Amy Gillett Bikeway' signs along the route, and watch out for traffic at the road crossings. Dogs are allowed but must be kept on a leash. 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.
