Join the Native Orchid Society of South Australia for a guided walk to discover the orchids of Morialta Conservation Park.

Learn the basics of orchid identification, how to search for orchids in the field, and how to recognise the habitats and conditions where they are most likely to be found. Experienced members of NOSSA will share their knowledge of South Australia’s native orchids, while helping you discover some of the species found throughout Morialta.

We will meet at the Moores track trailhead from 9.45am for a 10am start, and wander down the Moores road track.

Important information:

The trail is reasonably flat, but is not sealed. The track is unfortunately not suited for wheelchairs/walkers.
