About the Parks
Backdrop to the Adelaide Plains
Spectacular scenery, conservation of natural lands, along with our indigenous flora and fauna, combine in Black Hill, Morialta and Horsnell Gully Conservation Parks. They also provide opportunities in an outdoor setting for recreation for park visitors. Together they form a major open space along the foothills that is the Adelaide Hills Face Zone.Flood Damage November 2005
In November 2005, heavy rain caused localised flooding in Adelaide. Black Hill and Morialta Conservation Parks were also affected, with the main valley in Morialta closing, and a landslide in Black Hill Conservation Park. The Friends recommend you keep well clear of damaged paths and infrastructure for your own safety. To view commentary and photographs of the landslide at the top of Ghost Tree Gully in Black Hill Conservation Park, visit this web site set up by one of our members (link will open in a new window).| Site last updated: |
