Adelaide Hiking
From fern gullies to mountain peaks, explore Adelaide one step at a time.
Grab your boots and a backpack - Adelaide is in the prime position for hiking adventures. Take the road less travelled and pick from Adelaide's diverse range of nature reserves, national parks and coastal trails. Whether you're looking for a half-hour stroll or a multi-day trek, Adelaide's trails give you front-row seats to the region's remarkable landscapes.
Wind your way through bushland clinging to rugged rock escarpments in Waterfall Gully, a popular hiking destination in Adelaide's eastern suburbs. Cool off by the reserve's leaping waterfalls and enjoy a picnic in the shade.
For a more challenging trek, continue through the Cleland Conservation Park to the summit of Mount Lofty. From here, you'll see awe-inspiring views of the surrounding plains and ranges. Stick around to check out the Mount Lofty Botanic Gardens.
Northeast of Adelaide, the Morialta Conservation Park is a bushwalkers' paradise. Explore the city's backyard to find rugged ridges, local wildlife and seasonal waterfalls. Join a half-day hiking tour in Morialta Conservation Park to learn about the landscape with a guide. For a more laid-back ramble, check out the Torrens Lane Linear Park or the Hallett Cove Boardwalk.
