Chambers Gully Track

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This multi-use track winds through the quiet valley of the reserve, climbing gradually through eucalyptus woodland, and follows the gully past rocky slopes and seasonal creek lines. Compared with the nearby Waterfall Gully to Mount Lofty Summit Trail, it offers a more secluded route through natural bushland. However, it is a shared trail used by walkers, runners, and mountain bikers, so keep an eye out for other users while enjoying the peaceful bush setting.
