About the Walking Trail
The Mount Maria Walking Trail climbs the mountain just outside Wilmingon, offering extensive views over the Willochra Plain, with views over the town of Wilmington. There are art pieces at the summit pointing out the names and elevations of distance mountains and hills.
The trail can be started at either:
- Full hike: At the southern (Melrose) end of the main street, opposite Centenery Park
- Shorter hike: At the western end of Mount Maria Road
The longer hike, from the main street, passes through remnant woodland, which is now the golf course.
