Description
The Waikerie Rotary Cliff Top Walk is a 2km walk that offers a scenic view of the River Murray.
It begins near the Waikerie Ferry and passes through the pumping station grounds to the lookout. The walk follows along the picturesque clifftop, providing a fantastic view of the river and floodplain.
The height of the cliffs offers a stunning panoramic view of the River Murray and the surrounding floodplain. The trail encompasses various natural features, such as terraces, wetlands, billabongs, and backwaters, each with its unique flora and fauna. This makes the walk a popular choice for nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers. Visitors can spot a range of bird species, including peaceful doves, Singing honeyeaters, White-winged trillers, and Musk lorikeets.
The walk is accessible throughout the year, but the best time to visit is during the cooler months, from April to October. The weather is pleasant during this time, making it suitable for hiking.
To access the walkway, visitors can start near the Waikerie Ferry or behind the Rainmoth Gallery & Pioneer Park off Crush Terrace. It is recommended to bring plenty of water and sunscreen, as the sun can be harsh, and some sections of the trail can be steep. The Waikerie Rotary Cliff Top Walk is a must-visit destination for anyone exploring South Australia's Riverland region.
