As a town planned to be in harmony with the environment, Adelaide is the first city designed to be completely encircled by Park Lands.
With multiple walking and cycling tracks, self-guided trails, sporting fields, playspaces, formal gardens and squares, wherever you are in the city you can quickly find yourself immersed in nature.
Over 30 events will take place in the city as a part of Nature Festival, and everyone is welcome to join in. Check out the map below for all your city-based options.
The inaugural Nature Festival is proudly supported by the City of Adelaide.
Explore the city on foot or two-wheels with over 70 different trails focused on food, history, nature, art and culture.
If you have an interest in biodiversity, visit one of our project trails including Victoria Park Grasslands Biodiversity Trail, the Bunyip Trail, the Wirrarninthi Interpretive Trail and the The Bush Tucker Trail. Find out more on the City of Adelaide website.
Extend your nature time a little longer with a city staycation. Enjoy days surrounded by the beautiful Park Lands whilst immersing yourself in some truly unique Adelaidean experiences. Take a high tea cruise on the Popeye or explore the Riverbank area via Segway.
