Para Wirra Recreation Park

Para Wirra is one of the major recreation parks of the greater Adelaide metropolitan area taking its name from an Aboriginal phrase meaning river with scrub. Situated in bushland some 40 km north-east of the City centre, the park has a Rangers Office as well as an extensive network of picnic shelters, oval, walking trails, gas barbecues and public toilets. Para Wirra is open every day except Christmas Day. A vehicle entrance fee applies.
