Scott Creek Conservation Park is a protected area in the Australian state of South Australia located in the gazetted locality of Dorset Vale about 20 kilometres (12 mi) south of the state capital of Adelaide.
[2] Formerly Peramangk Aboriginal territory, European settlers first arrived in the late 1830s with timber from the area used in the construction of the city of Adelaide.
By the time production ceased in 1887 (due to economic reasons), 310 kilograms of silver had been mined.
The Almanda Mine ruins can be explored via two half-hour interpretative trails starting from the car park on Dorset Vale Road.
