Waterfall Gully Adelaide Hills — Attraction in Adelaide

After two months of entering into the raining seasons in Adelaide, I visited this Waterfall Gully today (27 July 25).

The river was full of raging water after heavy raining yesterday, so I reckoned I might have witnessed the most beautiful Waterfall Gully First Fall with such a turbulent water fall 😍

Visiting this Waterfall was really simple and enjoyable. After I parked my car without waiting, there was a decent public toilet and a popular cafe called Utopia. Then I just walked along the river upwards, less than 5 minutes I arrived at the First Fall. If you like hiking, there are a few different routes available. Based on the map sign, I think the following routes are available:

Mount Lofty Summit Cleland Widelife Park Crafter Mount Lofty Botanic Garden

I will definitely return again to finish one of these popular trails, rather than just visit the Waterfall...

The white waterfalls on the top of the mountain reverberate like soft silk in the middle of winter. From upstream, the water winds around the mountain cross the rocky rapids, and then flow like the flow of life. The high mountains bring the feeling of harmony in the murmur of streams, the sound of waterfalls, and the sound of birds passing branches on wild bushes. Everything is like a dream come true, resonating together rhythmically to paint the peaceful and pure features in the winter afternoon. Come and feel in your way.

Update after another hike: It was interesting to see the second waterfall from many different points of view. It was similar to how we see life through different lenses. The parking lot is quite large but may not be enough on some nice winter days or holidays so we may have to...

It was a beautiful walk and a hike at this lovely location with the breeze of the waterfall. We visited in the second week of July during winter. While the normal temperature was above 15 degrees, up the waterfall it was about 10 degrees. Relatively colder than the Adelaide city. There’s a great hike of 3.5km up the waterfall. This hike is over a steep walk. But the path is well paved and constructed. After a hike, you can have a great meal at the Utopia cafe located within the premises of the waterfall. I would say this place gets a little crowded...
