Starting from the Gate 11 car park on Piggott Range Road, Onkaparinga Hills, this walk takes you on a circuit around Onkaparinga River National Park via the Nature Trail, Echidna Trail, Bakers Gully Track and Sundews Ridge Hike. This challenging hike combines several trails in the eastern end of Onkaparinga National Park, with spectacular views over the narrow river valley of Onkaparinga Gorge. The loop was designed to stay on the same side of the river, which is often difficult to cross. The park protects some of the finest remnant vegetation in the region, providing habitat for native wildlife such as birds, koalas, kangaroos, possums and echidnas. The hike initially follows the Nature Trail through regenerating pink gum and grey box woodlands, then heads along the Echidna Trail, passing the ruins of an old cottage and a side trip to a seasonal waterfall. The hike continues along the Bakers Gully Track, descending to the river before returning along the Nature and Echidna trails, then follows the Sundews Ridge Hike past the Sundews Lookout, which offers great views over the river. This loop consists of fire tracks and narrow walking trails, with some short steep hills and creek crossings, 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.

Starting from the Gate 11 car park on Piggott Range Road, Onkaparinga Hills, this walk takes you on a circuit around Onkaparinga River National Park via the Sundews, Bronzewing, Bakers Gully, Echidna and Nature tracks. This challenging hike combines several trails around the Onkaparinga River upper gorge, covering a large area in the eastern section of the park, with views of the river gorge and the surrounding farmland. The hike initially follows the Sundews Track across the ridge, descending steeply into the gorge and crossing the river, then heads along the Bronzewing Track before venturing off-track along the park's eastern boundary towards the Pink Gum Campground. The hike continues along the Bakers Gully Track and the Echidna Hike, crossing the river again and passing a side-trip to a seasonal waterfall, then follows the Nature Hike though regenerating pink gum and grey box woodlands back to the car park. This loop consists of fire tracks and narrow walking trails, with some steep hills, overgrown sections and river crossings, suitable for moderately experienced bushwalkers with navigational skills. Dogs are not permitted in this park. 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.

Starting from the Pioneer Women's Memorial Garden on Mount Barker Road, Hahndorf, this walk takes you to Beaumont via the Pioneer Women's Trail. Experience the amazing journeys undertaken by the Prussian Lutheran women and girls who walked from Hahndorf to Adelaide, carrying fresh produce for the hungry townsfolk during the early years of European settlement. The Pioneer Women's Trail honours these women, for they were instrumental in saving the young colony of South Australia from starvation. The walk follows country roads, laneways and bush tracks through a beautiful section of the Adelaide Hills, passing historic buildings, deciduous trees and native bushland, with interpretive signs detailing the area's history along the way. The walk initially crosses the Onkaparinga River before joining the official trail at Verdun, then winds through Bridgewater and follows Cox Creek past the historic Old Bridgewater Mill. After traversing Mount George Conservation Park, the trail passes the Stirling Golf Club and heads through Stirling, a picturesque village with many cafés, restaurants and boutique shops. The trail continues through Crafers and Cleland Conservation Park, then follows the Old Bullock Track, emerging to stunning city views before descending to the historic Beaumont House. This walk consists of wide and narrow, gently undulating walking trails, fire tracks and roads, with uneven natural surfaces, compacted natural surfaces and sealed surfaces, suitable for moderate fitness levels, and can be done in either direction. 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.
