I had the pleasure of hiring Ingrid M as my guide in South Australia. I had a very lofty, bucket…read morelist goal of visiting a remote fossil site in the outback, 6 hours from Adelaide, in Nilpena. Ingrid planned out a wonderful drive from Adelaide, stopping in the Clare Valley wine country for a gourmet lunch and wine tasting, and then onward to Parachilna for the geological adventure. The drive to the outback goes through remote country, and would not be advisable for a first-timer or lone traveler. Ingrid drove the way, was a guide during my stay, and drove me back to Adelaide. She has lived in the outback, hence she was a wealth of information about South Australia and outback life. She is an excellent conversationalist, and a very gracious, responsible, and pleasant person. I definitely would travel with her again, and recommend her highly.

It was pretty hot when I was here yesterday and would have been unbearably so if it weren't for all…read morethe shady trees. Lot's of play equipment to keep the kids entertained, I do have a problem with the slide set up though, to get to the top you have to climb up this weird green material that has been fashioned into steps, but you cant really see the steps, very tripsy indeed. I know this because I went down the slide numerous times and the climb up didn't get any easier. There is a kiosk available for drinks and ice-cream etc. you can bring your own picnic though and there are BBQ facilities available. one thing I did notice was a lack of rubbish bins, in fact I didn't see one, but there had to be one because there was no rubbish on the ground. The burnside pool is just across the green if you want to go for a swim, personally I don't like public pools because of how much chlorine they have to pack into them, ever had chlorine induced hazy eye syndrome? It's painful.

I know there's been a million reviews on this playground already but my lists wouldn't be complete…read moreif I didn't add me two cent worth. The bottom line is, this is GREAT and much more of an adventure park than the Burnside Adventure park. There's sheltered tables for the on-lookers plus some wildly different play equipment. It's the sort of place where children will run from one thing to another. I can't wait to explore this park more with my daughter. There are BBQs on the lawn section just off of the playground area and unfortunately there isn't a lot of shade over there apart from tree shade. If your child is in a wheel chair, there is a mechanical swing for them to use. Lots of fun shall be had at this playground.

With a huge area of playground equipment, and a towering cubby house housing a flying fox, swings, a teeter totter and best of all, plenty of trees to climb and hide during a game of hide and seek. There is enormous shade available here and they have great BBQ facilities, seating benches, toilets with a changing table and a drinking fountain. We love coming here. Throw a picnic rug, walk bare foot on the mulch or soft grass, twirl, run, dance or jump. So much of fun and pleasure as you soak up nature's beautiful aroma, sights and sounds.

There is room here to set up a picnic and not feel like the other people in the park can hear every word you say or are checking out the types of sandwiches you made. There are toilets, BBQs, taps and from memory there was a drinking fountain near the toilet block. There isn't any sheltered table/chair areas, this park is more a 'throw out a blanket or bring a chair' park. The playground is rubber floored and there's more than enough here to entertain a wide variety of ages. I can imagine this park would get a lot of traffic so if you want a certain spot, I'd get here early. *Dogs allowed* *Drinking fountain* *Toilet block* *BBQ*

Brown Hill Park is a nice and varied park on the cusp of rich suburbia…read more It's a good compromise between a city park and conservation park I'd say. Probably because it's located on a hill. There's plenty of nature kicking around in the park and plenty of tracks and things to investigate to occupy yourself. I drive up to the lookout when I'm in the area to eat lunch watching the western side of the city from above. A great place to take in a marvellous Adelaide sunset as well. I remember once we came up here when there was a fire on an adjacent hill and we watched water bombers attack and douse the flames. People were cheering and clapping along as it battled the blaze. Very exhilarating.

Last time I went there someone put a dead sheeps head up on a wooden post sticking out of the ground right out the back of our cabin. As a animal lover I was terrified and felt sad for the poor sheep. My mum thought we were going to get murdered. A stray dog also kept coming to our cabin for a fed and the dog was heaps friendly. We were going to take it home with us and adopt it but it bit my mum's ex boyfriend so we had to leave the dog there. I cried all the way home. If you go this weird stuff might happen to you which, like myself, you probably won't forget. There is no McDonald's or large shopping centres at Port Victoria so if you're looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life then this is the place for you
