From the popular surf beach, ascend towards Ridgeway Hill before heading out to the coastal cliffs, passing sea-eagle nesting areas and the spectacular cliffs of Newland Head. Past the cliffs, the trail emerges onto Kings Beach. The main Heysen Trail turns north here, but a spur trail continues along the coast on the Victor Harbor Heritage Trail, past Petrel Cove to The Bluff, continuing past Whalers Way along the esplanade at Encounter Bay to Kent Reserve. This is a full day Grade 4 walk over 19 km.
