People and parks

The People and Parks Strategy (4.04mb pdf) has been developed to guide how people visit, use and enjoy South Australia’s national parks, marine parks and reserves. The strategy also aims to encourage more people to enjoy our state’s parks, learn about nature and get involved in conservation activities within, and beyond, park boundaries.

Part of this strategy includes actions to provide opportunities for people to engage and connect with parks in the Mount Lofty Ranges.

The Linking Adelaide with Nature Strategy (6.34mb pdf) sets out a vision for people to enjoy 29 parks and reserves managed by DEWNR in Adelaide and the Adelaide Hills through a sustainable and more appealing trails network. A series of trail development initiatives will be implemented over the next three years to achieve this vision. The Linking Adelaide with Nature Strategy also aims to increase community appreciation, understanding and stewardship for these parks.
