GPS Tracks
This climb is an awesome one, when you get to the top, you get an awesome view especially at sun set!
The Devil’s Peak trail is a moderately difficult bushwalk becoming increasingly strenuous towards the summit, where some scrambling over rocks is required. Allow 1.5 to 3 hours to complete this walk.
From the summit you will be rewarded with extensive panoramic views of Quorn, the Southern Flinders Ranges, the Horseshoe Range, Pichi Richi Pass, Port August, Upper Spencer Gulf and beyond to Wilpena Pound.
Devil’s Peak is 697m high, and along this walk you may observe many good examples of “faulting”, discover fossil impressions of ancient lifeforms, and see a variety of native fauna and flora.
Getting there:
It is accessible by car. Begin from the corner of West and South Terrace in Quorn. Follow Richmans Valley Road for 2.7km. Then turn right onto Devil's Peak Road a dirt road heading south (this road may not be GPS navigation devices). This road is 6.1km long and ends in the car park for the Devil’s Peak Walking Trail.
