The tale of Tommy the Elephant, After whom the Elephant Walk is named after, this also incorporates the Smith Creek Bike Trail which starts near Stebonheath Park and continues upto Uley Rd covering a total of 6kms of creek and bushland in s urban setting, Please take note when planning to attempt this series as it does have some steep inclines on the way. In the 1850's Adelaide was a small town with dirt roads that often became muddy and impassable and horses and bullocks were used for transport. An exotic animal such as an elephant was a star attraction and the zoo became very popular with visitors. When he was not on display or pulling a plough, he was fond of wandering around the district and getting into mischief such as pulling washing off clothes lines or tipping up washing tubs and playing with water. On one occasion he took his revenge, picking up a trunk full of wet plaster and spurting it into the faces of builders working on the hotel, after they had chased him away and hit him with their shovels. The owner was faced with court cases, so he sold Tommy to John Smith at Smithfield.
