Full description
This tour provides an active and immersive experience that enriches the understanding of nature at the Morialta Conservation Park. Start your morning adventure along the Morialta walking trails as the bush wakes from its night slumber. As you follow the trails, discover amazing rock faces, gorges and seasonal waterfalls cascading over sheer quartzite cliffs. Witness the dawn colours bounce on the spectacular rugged vistas and capture the sense of nature while discovering the natural wonders of this national reserve. Morialta is the best place in Adelaide where you can see koalas in the wild. It offers unique biodiversity where many native faunas can be spotted including the occasional kangaroo or echidna. The creeks, rock pools and the higher slopes of the Gorge offer a perfect habitat to several species of frogs and small lizards such as geckos, skinks and dragons. Listen to the sounds and observe the many native birds such as the Superb Fairy-wren, rare Golden Whistler, Rainbow Lorikeet and the iconic Laughing Kookaburra. Use the supplied binoculars and see how many species you can discover. In winter and spring, the park is abundant with native wildflowers including many delicate and colourful orchid species.

Wir wurden am Morgen von Shavojn, unserer Führerin vom Hotel abgeholt und führen mit einem Kleinbus in den Morialta Conservation Park. Glücklicherweise für uns, waren wir die einzigen Gäste (es sind aber wohl auch sonst nur kleine Gruppen von max. 8 Personen). Aufgrund der extrem heißen Temperaturen wurde der 2. Teil unseres Ausflugs, das BBQ leider gecancelt. Wir haben daher auch einen Teil der Kosten zurück erstattet bekommen. Wir hatten aber auch so ein ganz wunderbares Erlebnis. Vor der Wanderung haben wir jeder noch eine Flasche Wasser bekommen. Es war eine tolle Wanderung zu schönen Aussichtspunkten. Wir haben Koalas, Kängurus und verschiedenste Vögel gesehen u.a. auch einen Laughing Kookaburra. Shavojn war eine sehr kompetente, rücksichtsvolle und nette Führerin, die uns auf vieles aufmerksam gemacht und vieles erklärt hat. Die Liebe zur Natur merkt man ihr an. Wir würden diesen Ausflug aufs wärmste weiterempfehlen.
