Dorset Vale, SA

Scott Creek Conservation Park, located approximately 27 kilometers south of Adelaide, is a significant conservation area in the Mount Lofty Ranges, home to many threatened species. The park serves as an important link in the vegetation corridors of the hills and was once part of a major traveling route for the Kaurna Peoples. From the 1850s, the area was mined for both copper and silver, producing 310 kilograms of silver by 1887. Visitors can explore remnants of the mine ruins, including an engine house, stone chimney, mine office, and several mining shafts along the park's interpretive walking trails. Please note that Eys Tunnel is now closed due to public safety concerns.
