Thorndon Park Reserve

Park

👍👍 This is one of the parks that impressed me the most in Adelaide. It's only about 12km from CBD. The most interesting feeling for me is walking around the lake, listening to the sound of running water and watching the flocks of pigeons flying in the blue sky. New and spacious children's playground...

Moana Beach

Nature preserve

👍👍 It is such a beautiful beach to go to for a day out or an evening stroll. Went there in the midday and stayed there till the afternoon.

River Torrens Linear Park Trail

Nature preserve

👍👍 Can't beat a beautiful ride along the linear trail! When the water is flowing, it's so pretty and refreshing. The only point of criticism I would note is that dogs are often loose and have come off my bike due to a dog running out in front of me. The trail itself is very peaceful and picturesque. Lo...

Sturt Gorge Recreation Park

State park

👍👍 We did the hike in Sturt Gorge Recreation Park last Saturday. It was a bit drizzly in the morning, but the color in the park got so much more vivid because of the grooming weather. We took our cat Parker with us this time. He loved being in the wilderness! We had him on a leash where he was walking...

Para Wirra Conservation Park

Nature preserve

👍👍 What could be more enjoyable than an early winter day walking the trails of Para Wirra, where water flows through? Peaceful footsteps brought me to lie on the lakeside, listen to the birds chirping on the branches and not mind the bustling city life. At Para Wirra, I can be myself, breathe the brea...

Michael Perry Botanic Reserve

Nature preserve

👍👍 There is a lot of work being done and it shows. I appreciate that an old style garden is established alongside areas of native vegetation. The old architecture of dams and cascades, old growth trees with thick canopies and new garden beds give plenty of photo opportunities. Edit: Second creek is flo...

Maslin Beach

Tourist attraction

👍 Maslin Beach is a very large and flat beach. It's beautiful and quiet. The sand is very pure, but the grains of sand are coarser than other beaches. The parking lot on the hillside is very large and there are many parking spaces.

St. Peters Billabong

Nature preserve

👍👍 Local rumours have it that in 1971, during a wild and stormy night, an unidentified object plunged in the depths of the billabong. Now, with the aid of state-of-the-art sonographic equipment, I have discerned the origins of this object. Concerned by the exponential increase in radioactive possum sig...

Happy Valley Reservoir Reserve

Nature preserve

👍👍 Great place here. Lots of wildlife. It really feels like you are walking in the bush while you are here, but beware that there are some closed paths and you will need to walk along the borders (main roads) which is not entirely convenient Amazing scenery and wildlife. Great hiking trails. A very...

Waite Conservation Reserve

Nature preserve

👍👍 For only a small walk, this view is definitely worth it. To be able to swing out over Adelaide city is a must do! Not only that, there is so many beautiful chairs located on the mountain top for a slightly different experience each time. Bring the little ones or take a date, it will be a memorable s...

Mount Osmond Reserve

👍👍 WOW! This hike is worth every steep step uphill. After walking up the hill to where we could see over Adelaide, we continued walking the track and it was so refreshing! We saw kangaroos 🦘 and the views were spectacular. There are multiple waking tracks so it gives us a reason to go back and explore...
