Step Back in Time & Breathe Deep at The Pines!

Uncover Kapunda's hidden gem - The Pines Conservation Reserve! This tranquil escape boasts a rich history, starting as a forestry plantation in the 1880s. While the last pines were harvested in 1931, remnants of the past stand proudly alongside a reservoir that supplied the town with water for nearly 80 years!

Today, The Pines offers:

Scenic Walking Trails: Explore two defined trails – a 1.6km loop for a more immersive experience (approx. 1 hour) or a shorter 800m option (approx. 30 minutes) perfect for a quick nature fix.
Abundant Nature: Breathe in the fresh air and listen to the calming whisper of the wind through the gum trees. Keep your eyes peeled for delicate wildflowers dotting the landscape.
Relax & Recharge:

Picnic Perfection: Gather your loved ones for a relaxing picnic. A sheltered area with tables awaits, making it ideal for both small and large groups.
Convenient Amenities: Public toilets and ample parking for cars, caravans, and buses ensure a comfortable visit.
Finding The Pines:

The Pines Conservation Reserve is located just 7km from Kapunda on the Clare Road towards Tarlee/Clare. Look for the car park on the right-hand side at the intersection of Clare Road and Apsley Road.

Escape the everyday and discover the serenity of The Pines!
