Chambers Gully, Nature trail in Cleland National Park, South Australia.
Chambers Gully is a walking trail in Cleland National Park that forms a circuit of about 9.5 kilometers through native bushland. The route climbs gradually, passing through different vegetation zones with some steeper sections and quieter forest areas.
Chambers Gully was used as a local landfill before volunteers reclaimed it as a park over the past decade. Old ruins remain in the gully, and walking trails now pass springs and habitat where koalas are often seen.
Chambers Gully was a local landfill until volunteers reclaimed it as a park over the past decade. The name comes from the gully branching off Waterfall Gully, and the restored grounds now draw walkers and wildlife watchers.
Chambers Gully branches off Waterfall Gully in Adelaide's Eastern Suburbs; the walking trails pass old ruins and springs, so carry water and watch for uneven ground. Koalas are often seen in the trees, so look up rather than ahead. The park was reclaimed from a landfill by volunteers, and paths can be rough after rain.
Markers at trail junctions help walkers find their way and stay safe in the bushland. These identification signs are subtle but important for finding your way back to the start.
