Main Ridge Track climbs from the Black Hill Conservation Park car park on Gorge Road, working its way up through stringybark forest and dense heath to the higher points of the park. It’s a genuine workout, with steep, rocky sections and shifting terrain that moves between wide gravel fire track and narrower, looser paths. Kangaroos and koalas are regularly spotted along the way, with beautiful, sweeping views back over Adelaide and the Adelaide Plains opening up as the climb progresses.
