Find the Fleurieu Peninsula town of Tooperang by following Cleland Gully Road and the Tookayerta Creek east of Mount Compass as it winds though rolling hills and scrub.
Tooperang offers bed and breakfast accommodation, trout farm fishing, venison and other produce sales, and local crafts. This is where you can turn south on Deep Creek Road to reach Scott Conservation Park.
It was the local spring water-fed creeks that gave this area its name, derived from an Aboriginal word for “much water”.
You can try bait fishing and private secluded fly-fishing at the Tooperang trout farm, a great attraction for young and old. See trout in all their stages of development, have a picnic, barbecue a trout, or try a delicious smoked trout ready to eat.
