There are a lot of paths along the three rivers that meet at Gawler. The main walk is the Tapa Pariara Path, taking in the North Para River and South Para River.
We are no aware of a specific location the brown sign for Scenic River Paths directs you to, so we have chosen the Clonlea Park end of the Tapa Pariara Path. The other end is Dead Mans Bend, which has its own brown sign for Dead Man’s Pass.
History of the area is provided on information interpretive panels along the walk.
The Gawler Parkrun starts near the entrance of Clonlea Park.
To Get There
From Gawler Visitor Information Centre, it is difficult to head back to the main street so turn left onto Lyndoch Rd (or right on to Union then left into Lyndoch), then left into Edith St. After 200m, turn left to continue on Edith St and follow it to the end. Turn right onto Murray Rd and follow for 280m. Turn right into the entrance of Clonlea Park. The parking area is around 100m ahead.
From the main street through Gawler (Murray Street Gawler), follow Murray Street north. After crossing train line turn right into Flinders St, then first left into Murray Rd and follow for 260m. Turn right into the entrance of Clonlea Park. The parking area is around 100m ahead.
