Para Wirra National Park

Walk grade

Trail Walker

Description

This is a bush-walk through very picturesque country linking the major features in the park. The scenery rivals some areas of the Flinders Ranges with its beauty, and the proximity to Adelaide is a bonus. Birds of prey and colored birds in addition to native animals can be seen in the quieter northern parts of the park.

The terrain provides a good training ground for E2E walks etc.,as the route will be undulating, incorporating some significant climbs and gentle descents. Our return to the start point will be via a more recent established track.

First time trail walkers are encouraged to participate, a strategy for group cohesion will be in place.

The walk distance is about 14Km consisting of a loop from the Devils Nose car park via the gold fields and return by a different route.

Some sections are narrow with tripping hazard requiring undivided attention, please stop walking to admire the view in these areas.

Please note there is no park entry fee for registered participants in this walk.
