In the Adelaide Hills, Thorndon Park is a delightful watery hideaway. Whether picnicing with the family, walking the dog around the perimeter trail, or simply enjoying the abundant bird life, this picturesque reserve and reservoir is a real treasure often missed in Adelaide's east. For those with relaxation on their minds a lazy visit to the reserve could last all day. Although it is presently drained due to reclamation, it is still a beautiful spot and the water will be filled again soon. The more energetic may wish to move on to nearby Black Hill and Anstey Hill recreation parks which offer challenging bush walks.
