The Akurra trail is a 10.5km (4hr) walk from Leigh Creek township to the picturesque Aroona Dam. Commencing at the health clinic, the path is clearly signposted and includes cultural information. It traverses the magnesite rich Myrtle Springs Formation, the colourful ridge of the Skillogalee Formation, and into the towering dam walls of the Copley Quartzite Formation.
Trail map can be downloaded, and you can also pick up an informative brochure at the Leigh Creek supermarket. On your way back, you can drop into the Leigh Creek Library geological display of local rock and mineral samples.
