Glen­thorne Nation­al Park-Itya­mai­it­pin­na Yarta is a new nation­al park in Adelaide’s south­ern sub­urbs. The park is locat­ed 16 km south of Ade­laide on Majors Road in O’Halloran Hill.

The park is now open and you can walk a 4km tem­po­rary loop trail (see maps). The trail starts and ends at the park’s ranger sta­tion just off Majors Road.

The for­mer 208-hectare Glen­thorne prop­er­ty is being revi­talised through an exten­sive reveg­e­ta­tion pro­gram, the con­struc­tion of new facil­i­ties and fea­tures, and the restora­tion of her­itage build­ings. As some areas of the park are still under con­struc­tion please abide by onsite sig­nage and do not enter con­struc­tion zones.

Once con­struc­tion is com­plete, you will be able to enjoy a nature play space, pic­nic areas, bar­beque facil­i­ties and shel­ters, walk­ing trails, Kau­r­na cul­tur­al ele­ments and an inter­ac­tive her­itage precinct fea­tur­ing aug­ment­ed real­i­ty interpretation.

The for­mer O’Halloran Hill Recre­ation Park locat­ed adja­cent to the Glen­thorne prop­er­ty is now part of Glen­thorne Nation­al Park-Itya­­mai­it­pin­­na Yarta.

These areas join exist­ing parks and open spaces in Adelaide’s south to form the Glen­thorne Precinct, includ­ing Hal­lett Cove Con­ser­va­tion Park, Mari­no Con­ser­va­tion Park and Hap­py Val­ley Reser­voir.
