[2] The conservation park consists of land in section 293 in the cadastral unit of the Hundred of Kuitpo.

[2] The Heysen Trail, the long distance walking trail, passes through the middle of the conservation park entering from the east via Mount Magnificent Road and exiting in the north-west corner onto Blackfellows Creek Road.

The relatively flat land along the western boundary of the park carries stringybark low open forest (Eucalyptus baxteri, E obliqua).

With increasing gradient in an easterly direction, trees of E fasciculosa, E leucoxylon and E huberana form a woodland formation with a grassy understorey.

The stringybark association which occupies the lower elevations of the park contains a great variety of sclerophyllous shrubs including the two species of Banksia which occur in South Australia.The conservation park is classified as an IUCN Category III protected area.
