Overview

Highlights

Carappee Hill means 'place of water' and became a conservation park in 1973, covering 850 hectares. Carappee Hill Hiking Trail can be found on Carappee Hill Road, just out of Darke Peak in South Australia. It is a 2 hour approximate return hike to the top and is the highest point on the Eyre Peninsula at 489m above sea level.

Be sure to sign the visitors book when you reach the top and stop to take in the views of farm land, sea and skies stretching over the entire district of Cleve, Arno Bay and Darke Peak.
