Best places: Nature preserves in Balhannah, Australia

Rugged reserve with walking tracks to several seasonal waterfalls, rock climbing & wildlife viewing.

Popular sandy beach with cafes & a grassy playground, plus a jetty for sunset views & fishing.

👍👍 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...

Wetland area with walking/biking trails & boardwalks, plus picnic & bird-watching areas.

👍👍 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...

👍👍 Best place around for a workout and challenge. Awesome surroundings also

👍👍 The 20 minute walking trail has been completed along with plant naming signs and arrows clearly indicating the Botanic Trail. The volunteers have done a great job planting native flora beautifying the area. The views from the lighthouse of the beach and coast from Kingston Park to Brighton are reall...

👍👍 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...

👍👍 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...

👍👍 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...

👍👍 Beautiful spot for walking, cycling, jogging. We often walk along the Hallett Cove boardwalk to Kingston Park and no matter what time of year it is, the scenery is pretty! Public toilets are available and a nice shady playground for kids. There is also a neat caravan park at Kingston Park which face...

👍👍 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...

👍 Great park , clean bbq area , sporting area and a good walking area for dogs

👍 This is quite a challenging hiking trail. First time there, went for the waterfall hike. Most of the paths were narrow and rocky. Some parts had to jump over rocks to cross the riverbeds. Needed to climb up some huge rocks to continue the path next to the waterfall. The hike is more suitable for te...

Rugged natural area popular for hiking, with native plants & animals & a wildflower garden.

👍 Nice place to have lunch break when working popular walking trails and people love to walk their dogs when have some time will explore the area should have more parking spots

👍👍 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...

👍👍 Nice spot to go for a stroll around the dam and watch the ducks. Explore a litte further and you can walk down along the creek. Let the kids play at the BMX Track while you let the dogs have a run around on the oval. Has toilets, picnic table and swings.

👍👍 It's a great place to detach yourself from the chaos of life. Being a university student and an avid birdwatcher I love visiting the river for a walk or just to sit and relax. It's very close to the museum, art gallery, Adelaide university, UniSA, botanic park, Adelaide zoo and Rundle Mall. Great fo...

👍👍 Beautiful park for a hike and explore.
