Horsnell Gully Conservation Park and Giles Conservation Park are two parks in the Adelaide foothills. They are just southwest of Norton Summit and encompasses several small gorges feeding the Adelaide Plains. Horsnell Gully is the western lower section, and Giles is the upper eastern section. Horsnell Gully contains a small seasonal waterfall and Giles contains several ruins of nineteenth-century dwellings. There are a number of walking trails and the Heysen Trail traverses the Giles section.
