River Torrens

Highlight • River

River Torrens (Karrawirra Pari) is Adelaide’s central river, flowing about 85 kilometres from the Adelaide Hills through the city centre and west to the sea at Henley Beach. Lined by parks, wetlands, and walking trails through much of metropolitan Adelaide, the river supports birdlife, recreation, and important green spaces while also holding deep cultural significance for the Kaurna people, who know it as Karrawirra Pari, meaning “red gum forest river.” Along its course, the river varies from narrow, tree-lined sections and wetlands to more expansive stretches, including the well-known waters of Torrens Lake in central Adelaide.

That’s on the northern side of the river where it’s a bit narrower but also cosier.

River Torrens Linear Park Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

River Torrens Linear Park Trail is a long, 35-kilometre shared walking and cycling route that follows the River Torrens (Karrawirra Pari) through Adelaide, connecting parks, wetlands, and riverside reserves from the hills to the coast. This section is an easy walk along the peaceful riverside corridor, where you’ll see ducks, cormorants, and other waterbirds that call this area home. Along the way, there are additional walking routes on this side and across the river if you’re looking to extend your outing.
