Belair National Park

Went there during a chill September afternoon for the first time, it’s so nice to have an easy access to the National Park from the city by riding the train. It is beside the park north western entrance. Lovely place and i am sure to be back in the future!

Belair National Park, just 13 km from Adelaide, is a perfect nature escape from city life. Set in the Mount Lofty Ranges, it offers scenic landscapes, native bushland, lakes, seasonal waterfalls, and a variety of hiking trails for all levels. Ideal for a day trip, the park has plenty of picnic areas with BBQs, shelters, and toilets. Kids can enjoy playgrounds and open spaces, while adults relax or explore. Wildlife is abundant—keep an eye out for kangaroos, koalas, and colorful birds. Visitors can also enjoy sports facilities like tennis courts and cricket pitches, or visit the historic Old Government House. Belair National Park is a beautiful, family-friendly spot to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Lovely campground inside the Belair National Park, lots of wildlife and wonderful views of the park. Lots of trails to explore and experience. Many options for kiddos with great playgrounds and arcade room, plus the bike trails "bike track". Clean and modern bathrooms and laundry.

Lovely place to have a break, cooler weather. Friendly and helpful staff, have dog friendly cabin. Thank you.

Lovely place to go to you do have to pay to go into the national park if you want to take your car in otherwise there is plenty of walking and it’s just got so many random things there to have a look at

Great trails, beautiful scenery and lovely plants and wildlife. We went for the wild flowers and we were very happy. There are lovely orchids growing and all kids of other native flowers. I have mobility issues so the trail we chose (Microcarpa) took quite a lot longer than the 1 hour quoted. However a lot of it was fairly easy to do until we hit a section that was much more undulating. We know for next time though and will probably just do the first half then turn back.

It was very dry during summer. The creek was completely dry. Plenty of koalas and spotted a kangaroo and a snake. Convenient location next to the train station.
