With a giant Ferris wheel, beach access, playground, restaurants, and much more its no wonder Glenelg is a popular destination on Adelaide's coast line. There's something for everyone here so don't be surprised if time gets away from you while you try to explore it all.

This family friendly beach is popular for its sandy shores and safely patrolled swimming areas as well as the jetty and many cafes along the Esplanade.

The University of Adelaide Footbridge was built in 1937, part of the Adelaide City Council's contribution to South Australia's Centenary in 1936. In 1971, there was a prank on Prosh Day in which engineering students suspended a car hanging from the bridge under the cover of night. This prank is still talked about as part of Adelaide University folklore.

Looking out across the river, five origami-like boats sit on the water, part of Shaun Kirby’s Talking Our Way Home installation on the Karrawirra Pari, also known as the River Torrens. Taking a look at the boats, there is writing, which is letters written to loved ones by migrants in the 19th and 20th centuries who immigrated here.

Victoria Park, also known by its Kaurna name Pakapakanthi (Park 16), forms part of Adelaide’s Park Lands just east of the city centre. The park combines open grasslands, restored wetlands and areas of woodland, with walking and cycling paths running throughout. It offers wide views toward the Adelaide skyline while retaining pockets of natural habitat.

The Pakapakanthi Wetlands demonstrates how urban parks can support both nature and community needs. Designed as part of the Brown Hill Keswick Creek Stormwater Project, the wetland helps manage floodwater while improving stormwater quality before it moves downstream. Beyond flood protection, it creates habitat for birds and aquatic life and adds biodiversity to the parklands. The area also enhances the recreational and visual appeal of Victoria Park, showing how integrated urban water management can balance environmental health with city infrastructure.

Pakapakanthi Interpretive Trail guides you through grassland, wetland and woodland ecosystems in the southern half of Victoria Park (Park 16). Along the way, interpretive markers share insights into environmental processes, Kaurna cultural heritage and the landscape’s history before and after European colonisation. As you follow the trail, you’ll also catch open views toward the Adelaide city skyline, creating a contrast between natural systems and the urban edge.

The River Torrens is 85 kilometres long and is the main river in Adelaide, flowing down from the Mount Lofty Ranges near Mount Pleasant to the sea at West Beach. The river has long been a place to meet and socialise for the Kaurna people. They called it Karrawirra Parri, meaning “river of the Red Gum forest” referring to the dense eucalyptus forest that used to line the banks prior to European settlement.
