Section 7: Inman Valley to Myponga

Majestic gums line the roadsides leading to the climb up Sugarloaf Hill where you’ll be rewarded with great rural views. The Trail then heads into the spectacular Myponga Conservation Park for more views and some testing undulation. Pretty farmland and quiet country roads complete this section.

There is very limited parking at the marked end point where the trail meets Yulte Road

Larger groups should instead park at Myponga, either along Stephens Rd or in the Myponga Oval.

This creates a 1.5km walk out to and from trail head.
