Nestled in the picturesque Adelaide Hills, the Giles Ruins offer a captivating glimpse into South Australia's pioneering past. Located along the Ridge Track in Horsnell Gully, these historic stone cottages—"Hope," "Faith," and "Charity"—were constructed in the 1840s by Charles Giles and John Horsnell. The remnants of "The Reedbeds," once cultivated by early settlers, can still be explored, with traces of slate channels and European trees hinting at its former purpose. The area is also known for its koala population, offering a chance to spot these fascinating creatures in their natural habitat.
