We’re introducing a new series, 'Loved by Locals', where we share some of our favourite places right here in the Goyder region.
And we’d love your help.
If you’re a local out exploring your backyard, don’t forget to tag us in your photos or send them through to the Burra & Goyder Visitor Information Centre. We’d love to share your favourite spots and help inspire others to discover the region through local eyes.
Looking for a simple adventure close to home?
Have you ever made the walk up to Mount Bryan Summit?
Just a short 15-minute drive from Burra, this local favourite is well worth the effort. If you’re feeling a bit more adventurous, you can even follow sections of the Heysen Trail from Burra.
The walk to the top takes around 1.5 to 3 hours, and once you’re there… it’s something special. Take a seat, catch your breath, and watch the landscape stretch out around you.
Even better? Pack a picnic and enjoy it at the top.
With rising fuel costs, it’s a great reminder that some of the best experiences are right here in our own backyard.
