SUMMARY:Mark Oliphant Conservation Park
DESCRIPTION:Come and explore the little-known Mark Oliphant Conservation Park\, (formerly called Loftia Recreation Park)\, renamed in 1996 in honour of former state Governor Sir Mark Oliphant’s contribution to conservation.\n\nWe will walk through some of the outer reachers of the park plus parts of the more established trails while enjoying the bush landscape\, and hopefully seeing the native birds that are com­mon­ly seen in the area\, includ­ing the scar­let robin\, gold­en whistler and the Ade­laide rosel­las and possibly the odd kangaroo. The park is also an impor­tant habi­tat for the nation­al­ly endan­gered south­ern brown bandicoot.\n\nWhile not a long walk at about 8kms\, it is an undulating walk along some rough trails with a few steep ups and downs. Some bushwalking experience and fitness is ESSENTIAL.\n\nBIOSECURITY MEASURES – Please ensure you thoroughly clean your footwear\, clothing\, walking poles and other equipment before and after each walk to remove all seeds\, dirt and other debris.
