Description

We will meander along Brownhill Creek, Wirraparinga Trail, this is a 5.4km circuit walk which we should manage in under 2hrs. Relatively flat with areas of shade.

Sites of interest on the hike include the Monarch of the Glen, a 400 year old river red gum. Its hollow trunk once sheltered Kaurna Aboriginal people and colonists until as late as the 1950s. Several settlers even gave birth inside the tree (apparently!).

After the walk join us for dinner at The Ed or perhaps a quick refreshment.
