Burnside Walks - C + D Circuits is a 5.8km, grade 4 circuit hike, located in Mount Osmond Reserve, South Australia. The hike should take approximately 2hrs to complete.

Hike Summary

The many walking trails in Mount Osmond Reserve provides good opportunity to combine walking loops, such as combining the C Circuit (Themeda Circuit) and D Circuit (Beaumont Circuit). The trails through Mount Osmond Reserve are open, and a mix of single track walking trail, and wider fire tracks. Some of the walking trails here are well contoured and wind their way around the hills. There are options to use the very steep Centre Track, a fire track that intercepts the winding walking trail, as a shortcut.

This walking trail is part of the Burnside Walks network, a series of trails around the hills on the edge of the City of Burnside, and in Mount Osmond Reserve. The trails are all well marked, with regular signs and numbered checkpoints that correspond to the excellent walking map.

Parking is available on Dashwood Road, near #110, Beaumont, or at 12 Hayward Drive, Mount Osmond, and at places marked with a P on the Burnside Walks Brochure.

This hike can be accessed by Adelaide Metro bus, via Bus Stop 20 Dashwood Road, Beaumont.

About the region

Mount Osmond is a small suburb of 2,497 people in the South Australian capital city of Adelaide. The suburb is at a high elevation in the Mount Lofty Ranges, and provides views over Adelaide as well as containing a renowned golf course and country club. Mining operations in the 19th century gave the area notoriety, but it has since developed slowly into a small, quiet and secluded suburb.
