Starting from the car park off Law Road, Holder, this walk takes you on a circuit around Maize Island Lagoon Conservation Park via the Peter Jacobs Trail. The Peter Jacobs Trail is a self-guided walk along old off-road vehicle tracks that have been repurposed as walking trails, providing an opportunity for visitors to learn about Maize Island Lagoon Conservation Park. The park protects floodplain habitats of the Murray River, including low-lying lagoon areas lined by tall, majestic river red gum trees, providing habitat for a variety of bird and reptile species, as well as western grey kangaroos. The trail is dedicated to Peter Jacobs, a member of the Waikerie community who was a passionate protector of the environment and advocate for the park. Along the trail, there are interpretive signs with information about environmental watering, floodplain vegetation, local wildlife, plant ecology and threatened species, as well as the history and community value of Maize Island. This loop consists of mostly flat fire tracks, with compacted natural surfaces and sandy surfaces, suitable for most fitness levels. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
