A popular walking trail from Waterfall Gully to Mt Lofty (and visa versa) with a cafe at each end, a well made path and regular seating.

We recommend the tram.

Tram is 5 mins walk away on Glengyle Ave. Trams come every 15 mins. Regular and reliable. New trams make them very comfortable. We keep Metrocards in the guest folder at home that can be topped up on the tram. Or single tickets can be purchased at the machine on the tram (payment by cash, credit card). Only one tram line - to Glenelg (beach) and to city and onward to Entertainment Centre, so can't get lost!! Bus is also easy to access with the bus stop next to the Centro (Kmart) shops on Anzac Highway.
