How do you get there?

Catch the Bus

Visit Adelaide Metro for timetable and route information.

By car

Continue East where after a few kilometres, you will come to a hotel called the Maid and Magpie. At first it looks as if the hotel is set right in the middle of the road, but you will soon see that you have a choice of veering left or right. Choose to veer right. This is Magill Road.

Continue along Magill Road. You will cross Portrush Road and Glynburn Road, but when you get to St Bernards Road, you will need to turn left. Don't worry if you miss this corner, you can always turn left at Norton Summit Road, and again at Glen Stuart Road.

If you have turned left onto St Bernards Road, travel north until you reach Moules Road. Turn right here. There is a school oval on the northern corner, the road runs beside the oval for a little way. Travel up the hill, and turn left when you reach the end, this is Glen Stuart Road. If you missed the St Bernards Road turn off, this is where our paths meet again!

The Rostrevor College is now on your right. The next corner is Morialta Road. Turn right here. You will come to an awkward intersection. Travelling on, and to the left a little will take you into the park, but watch out for traffic coming around the corner to your left, and be prepared to give way!

Travel into the park, where you should find parking spaces. Alternatively, there is a recreation area just to the North, that you can reach by turning left into Stradbroke Road, and then choosing the park entrance to your right.

Remember to lock your vehicle, and take any valuables with you. There have been reports of thefts from cars in this area.
