About this tour
Walk through [Kangaroo Island](/places/kangaroo-island)'s bushland after hours when the light softens and wildlife stirs. This two-hour guided trek around Little Sahara takes you past towering eucalypts, the Eleanor River and dense scrub where koalas are guaranteed sightings. Your guide unpacks the ecology as you go—native plants, bird calls, beehives, raptor nests—building a real sense of how this pocket of bush fits together.

What to expect
Expect a steady two-hour walk on natural bush tracks with moderate terrain. Your guide sets a conversational pace, stopping to point out koalas wedged in branches, identify edible plants where season allows, and explain the layered ecology—from canopy birds to ground cover. The light will be golden-hour soft, making visibility good but creating long shadows. You'll hear more than you might expect: insect buzz, bird calls, the rustle of leaves. Bring sturdy footwear and a torch; the track is safe but uneven in places.
Good to know
Pack your own water and snacks—nothing's provided. You'll need moderate fitness for the terrain and pace. Children under 18 must have a parent or guardian along. Service animals welcome. Dress in layers as evening temperature can shift.
