Happy Hollow plank crossing

Highlight • Bridge

They had installed a really good proper bridge but shortly after it was wiped out by a recent flood and we are back to a plank crossing, but it does the job, better than the serendipity has been just upstream which is now difficult to cross

Drop Overlooking Welcome Back Crossing

Highlight • Climb

I broke 3 bones in my shoulder down this drop so I don't recommend it
It's not easy getting your bike out of without anybody to help with a broken shoulder
Probably recommend carrying a sling in your kit if you tackle drops like this and a friend

The Big Dipper Trail

Highlight • Trail

Wouldn't like to have a spill on the way down as one certainly hit some speed towards the bottom

Plenty River footbridge

Highlight • Bridge

This footbridge provides an easy crossing over the Plenty River in the heart of Plenty Gorge Park, surrounded by tall river red gums and native bushland. It’s a great place to take a moment to watch the river flowing under your feet and enjoy one of the quieter corners of the gorge before continuing your walk.

Tanunda Wetlands

Highlight • Lake

Tanunda Wetlands in Plenty Gorge Park are constructed wetlands designed to filter stormwater before it enters the surrounding waterways. The area is made up of a series of shallow and deeper ponds, with reeds and vegetation helping clean the water naturally. As you walk through, you’ll notice a mix of open grassland and wetland habitat, which attracts a wide range of birdlife.
