Starting from the Day Visitor Area car park at the end of Park Road, Mambray Creek, this walk takes you to the Old Baroota Cemetery and back via the Baroota Hike. The Baroota Hike meanders through red river gums and native pine forest along Mambray Creek, exploring the Old Baroota Cemetery and the Baroota Homestead Ruins, which provide an insight into the early pastoral history of Mount Remarkable National Park. The hike initially follows the Mambray Creek Walk, with interpretive signage explaining the importance of water to the area, then branches off along a trail that ends at the cemetery, passing a side trip to the ruins. Established in 1851, the 'Baroota Run' operated from the homestead and thrived for twelve years, until the area was struck by the Great 1860s Drought. This hike consists of mostly flat gravel and dirt trails, with some irregular surfaces and creek crossings, suitable for average fitness levels. Dogs are not permitted in this park. 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.
