More Guidance and maps

by Shane Sody

It's said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

We're flattered that the City of Adelaide has jumped onto our idea of publishing Trail Guides for parts of your Park Lands.

Our collection of 28 different Trail Guides covers almost the entirety of your Park Lands.

Using one of the Adelaide Park Lands Association’s Trail Guides is like having a human tour guide with you, as you walk at your own pace, while discovering multiple stories about each Park's features and history.

An example: Stop #18 on our Trail Guide to Veale Park /Walyu Yarta (Park 21)

The City of Adelaide is now offering a complementary service; 16 less ambitious trail guides, each one essentially just a single paragraph of description and a PDF map.

An example: The City of Adelaide’s PDF Trail map of a running loop around the Torrens lake

Nevertheless, the City Council's contribution is another welcome addition to greater appreciation and understanding of the world's only Park with a city inside it.
