    The start of the 2km walking loop was down about 300 steps to the bottom of the gorge. We walked along the dry river bed over boulders and either side were vertical cliffs in amazing orange colours - it is a quartzite gorge. It was hard to think that many years ago sheep used to graze there. Along the river bed were all sorts of small plants and even some tadpoles in the water holes. After the narrow part of the gorge we found ourselves in a more open creek and we gradually climbed up and back to the starting point.Wear a good pair of shoes and perhaps even take a hiking pole if you need a bit more help over boulders and uneven ground.We really enjoyed the walk.

    We really enjoyed this walk with our three kids. Watch out for snakes in the warmer months. The gorge section of the walk was very picturesque. It's a little arduous but most people could do it.

    What a pretty and pleasant walk down the steps to base of the gorge. However, the walk back up the steps certainly tests your ftiness level. Good news though. There are some regular seating spots along the stairway!

    Alligator Gorge in the Lower Flinders near Melrose is a superb National Park with many short and longer walks. You can also do a day walk through the Gorge. The Park is abounding (literally) with wildlife including wallabies and kangaroos, and we say emus with chicks. If you don't have a lot of time, drive to the carpark and take a short walk to one of the lookouts.

    First visit to this place and I was impressed by its natural beauty. Visiting in the middle of winter transforms the place to a series of waterfalls and running streams. However, you need to be careful with your steps as the rocks can become very slippery. In fact, access to the Narrow Gorge was blocked by the depth of the water running through the gorge.As a heads up, stay at the Alligator Lodge located in the Alligator Gorge Park.(http://www.environment.sa.gov.au/parks/Find_a_Park/Browse_by_region/Flinders_Ranges_and_Outback/Mount_Remarkable_National_Park/Accommodation/alligator-lodge). Perfectly located for the walks around the Gorge and nearby Mt Remarkable. Accommodation is comfortable and clean and great for a couple of families. One word of warning is that due to its remote location, you are relying on solar power for your electricity. All good during summer but in winter with lots of cloud cover and shorter daylight hours, you may be in the dark before to long! If you are sensible, you won't have any probably.

    After being closed due to bushfire in the Southern Flinders Ranges for a month. The Gorge has now re-opened to tourists to visit. Well worth a visit if travelling through the area. We were well looked after at the Stony Creek Bush Camp Caravan Park who's owners have all information regarding this hike.

    with lots of water and tadpoles.Have a good look at the map first - not too many signposts in the gorge.

    A bitumen road from the outskirts of Wilmington ( south side -off of highway) takes you to the car park servicing Alligator Gorge. The trip by car takes about 20 minutes and this is only due to the numerous spoon drains across the road to shed water in heavy downpours. The car park area has picnic benches, 2 long drop toilets, water and long-vehicle parking is also accommodated.There is a 220 stone-stepped stairway leading you to the canyon floor. It is very steep but has hand- railing all the way to the bottom and "resting " seats for the climb back up. We needed them.The red stoned canyon are sensational, water was running through the ancient creek and there was plenty of great photo opportunitys.

    5 year old. Twins and three year old were kept so busy by the sights, and not too hard walk.... We had peace and quiet for two and a half hours!
