Starting from the roadside car park on Maurice Road, Rocky Gully, this walk takes you on a circuit around Kinchina Conservation Park via the Jailhouse Rocks Trail. Kinchina Conservation Park forms the largest area of native vegetation in the Monarto Crown Lands region, protecting grassy woodland communities and threatened plant species such as Monarto mintbush and Menzel's wattle. The park is used for a wide range of recreational activities, including bushwalking, mountain biking, horseback riding and birdwatching. It's also home to several rare birds, including the diamond firetail, restless flycatcher and hooded robin, and in spring, there's an abundance of orchids, lilies and wildflowers. This relatively easy loop is one of the shorter walks in the park, heading south from the car park on Maurice Road. This loop consists of narrow, gently undulating walking trails and uneven natural surfaces in parts. It is suitable for average 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.
