Access to Kelly Hill Conservation Park (including Kelly Hill Caves) is only available via guided tours. The park remains closed outside of the specific tour times and is planned to reopen in late October 2023.
The majority of the park and much of its infrastructure was burnt in the January 2020 bushfire, but we’re working hard to rebuild and reimagine the park.
While rebuild works are undertaken, visitors can join behind the scenes tours with park rangers. The tours traverse Kelly Hill Conservation Park and go down into the Kelly Hill Caves system.
Learn about Kangaroo Island’s geology and heritage, and experience the bushfire recovery firsthand. Have a sneak peek of future plans for Kelly Hill Conservation Park and the Kelly Hill Caves experience.
While Kelly Hill Conservation Park remains closed (outside of specified tour times), Flinders Chase National Park is open and is only a short drive away. Flinders Chase National Park is home to beautiful coastal landscapes and iconic features such as Remarkable Rocks, Admirals Arch and Cape du Couedic Lighthouse.
