About the Walking Trail
Enjoy a walk from Waitpinga Campground out to the cliffs of Waitpinga. The loop hike is easy to follow along some of the Heysen Trail, before returning inland via a fire track and a short section of the Ridgeway Hill Walking Trail.
Extend the hike to the more spectacular viewing points of the cliffs by walking on the Waitpinga Cliffs to Kings Beach hike.
