Award-winning wetlands off Bald Hills Road in Mount Barker in the Adelaide Hills, run by the District Council of Mount Barker as a water reclamation facility that doubles as a place to walk, cycle, picnic and watch birds. Pram-friendly trails and boardwalks named after local birds, such as the Chestnut Teal, Rosella and Sacred Ibis trails, wind around the ponds, with several bird-watching hides, a picnic and barbecue area and an environmentally friendly toilet. The trails link to the 7 km Mount Barker Linear Trail along the creek to Keith Stephenson Park. Group tours can be booked with the council on 8391 7200.
