Gorge Hike
South Australia
This trail descends from the Sundews Lookout along a contoured walking trail to the bottom of the gorge, and then follows the river downstream for 1.6km before returning via a steep fire track to the ridge and the car park.
The walk takes in two perennial waterholes, and a lookout. There are numerous glimpses into the river gorge from various parts of the trail.
The 1.6km of trail along the river is not well-formed, and involves some short rock scrambling. Current water levels and recent rainfall can impact on how hard this river section of trail is to follow. The trail is easiest to navigate when walking clockwise, as the fire trail exit is easily spotted, whereas when walking anticlockwise the walking trail exit may be harder to find.
Begins from the carpark at Gate 11 on Piggott Range Road (near junction of Upper Penneys Hill Road).

Punchbowl Lookout Walk
South Australia
A new trail opened in Spring 2017 as part of the Government of South Australia’s $10 million upgrade of the Adelaide’s national parks.
The 1km (2km return) trail visits a new lookout above The Punchbowl, where you can see spectacular views into the Onkaparinga Gorge. The trail is a consistent one metre wide and made of compacted gravel, and with gentle contoured gradients, so as such is suitable suitable for people of all abilities, including those with mobility access issues, wheelchairs and prams. There is some seating mid-way along the trail.
Some people using wheelchairs may require assistance on the way back up the trail to the car park.
The Hike begins from the new carpark constructed in 2017, between gates 8 and 9 on Piggott Range Road. There are toilets at the nearby Sundews Carpark, near Gate 11 on Piggott Range Road.

Shifen Waterfall 十分瀑布 (New Taipei City)
Taiwan
This is not much of a hike. There is a solid concrete path and road that takes you directly from the train station at Shifen to the waterfall. The viewpoints around the waterfall are incredibly crowded and can somewhat disrupt the view. I recommend going early to beat the tourists.
