Vale Park is a suburb of Adelaide in the Town of Walkerville, South Australia. It is located northeast of the Adelaide city centre between North East Road and the River Torrens, astride Ascot Avenue, part of the A17 highway which is the major eastern ring route bypass of Adelaide.
Vale Park was originally a private subdivision named after Vale House, the home of Philip Levi, a pastoral pioneer.[2]
