Track Grade

Grade 2 (Easy) - A Gentle Introduction to Inclines: Grade 2 on the AWTGS represents easy walking tracks that offer a slightly more challenging experience compared to Grade 1. Similar to Grade 1, no prior bushwalking experience is required. The track surface is typically hardened or compacted and may have gentle hill sections or occasional steps. The total distance of a Grade 2 walk is typically no greater than 10 kilometers. These walks are still suitable for families with a bit more experience or those seeking a gentle introduction to some inclines.

About the region

Nestled in the Adelaide Hills, Lynton Reserve boasts a diverse network of trails designed for various uses. Established in 2010, the trails cater to walkers, mountain bikers, and even horse riders in designated areas.

The park offers a 10-kilometre shared-use trail perfect for walking and cycling, open during daylight hours (excluding Total Fire Ban days). This trail winds its way through Grey Box grassy woodlands, offering glimpses of the city skyline and dramatic quarry faces.

Beyond the shared trail, Lynton Reserve, along with Sleeps Hill Reserve and Lynton Depot Reserve, feature a combination of wider vehicle tracks and single walking trails. These meandering paths allow visitors to explore the park's unique landscape at their own pace, taking in the natural beauty and historical significance of the former quarry sites.

The design of the trail network itself reflects the park's physical characteristics and conservation values. This ensures a balanced experience for visitors, allowing them to enjoy the natural environment while respecting its delicate ecosystem.
