The Kuitpo Forest was established in 1898 and is just 45 minutes' drive from Adelaide, near the rural township of Meadows.

It forms part of ForestrySA's Mount Lofty Ranges forest estate, providing sustainable softwood production and protecting conservation areas within a picturesque community playground.

Forest hut accommodation and camping is available to book outside of the fire season at ForestrySA's Rocky Creek Hut, Woodcutter's Cottage and Tinjella Hut.

ForestrySA manages 10,000ha of plantation forest in the Mount Lofty Ranges. As leaders in responsible plantation management for 150 years, all trees are replanted following harvest, allowing for sustainable timber production well into the future. In addition, ForestrySA manages over 4,000 ha of Native Forest reserves protected for conservation and biodiversity. There is plenty to see and do, with more than 1,000,000 people visiting each year for activities such as camping and accommodation, bushwalking, hiking, running, bike riding, horse riding, fossicking, orienteering and rogaining, wedding ceremonies and so much more.
