Starting from the Kersbrook Public Hall car park on James Crescent, Kersbrook, this walk takes you on a circuit around the area north of Kersbrook via the Simpson Loop. Following the quiet country lanes and tracks north of the rural town of Kersbrook, the Simpson Loop passes through areas usually only used by locals, with good views over the surrounding ridgetops, rolling hills and farmland, where plenty of grazing cattle, sheep, horses and alpacas can be seen. The Kersbrook Public Hall is the trailhead for most of the Mount Lofty Ranges Trails, with toilet facilities and a large sign detailing the trails in the area. The Simpson Loop is mostly part of the Kersbrook Horse Trail network and is identified with yellow and black trail markers. This loop consists of wide shared-use fire tracks and dirt roads, with some short steep hills, suitable for walkers and cyclists of average fitness levels. When on private farmland, stay close to the fence line and leave the gates as you found them. 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.
