Suggested Self Drive Tour of South Australia
Day 1 The world-renowned Barossa wine region is a one-hour drive north
east of Adelaide. Take the picturesque route through the Adelaide Hills, via
Chain of Ponds and Kersbrook to Williamstown. Nearby is the Barossa Reservoir
and its Whispering Wall, where messages whispered one side can be heard 140
metres away on the other. Stop at Lyndoch for morning tea at the Lyndoch
Bakery. On the road to Tanunda visit the Jacob’s Creek Visitor Centre,
Orlando Wyndham’s new cellar door. The Barossa boasts a myriad of wineries
– others along this road include Grant Burge and St Hallett. In Tanunda,
grab a Heritage Town Walk brochure from the Barossa Wine and Visitor Centre and
visit the many cafes, bakeries, antique and craft shops. Great wineries nearby
include Peter Lehmann Wines, Richmond Grove and Langmeil Winery.
Day 2 Drive to Angaston via Mengler Hill Lookout for one of the best views of
the valley. In Angaston, visit the Angas Park Fruit Company for dried
fruits, and the South Australian Company Store for SA products. Saltram
Winery and Yalumba are near Angaston. Plus don’t miss visiting Maggie
Beer’s Farm Shop, just out of town. Wineries to visit near Nuriootpa
include Elderton Wines and Penfolds Wines. Follow the palm-lined avenue through
Marananga to Seppeltsfield, looking out for the family mausoleum along the way.
Day 3 The Clare Valley is a one-hour drive away through beautiful
farming country. Head to Greenock, with its historic buildings, friendly pub
and heritage walk. Kapunda, a short drive away, is home to “Map the
Miner” – a large tribute to the area’s rich mining heritage
– and the Kapunda Heritage Trail. The heritage village of Mintaro should
not be missed, and the magnificent Georgian mansion Martindale Hall is just 10
minutes away. Enjoy afternoon tea or a beer at the legendary country pubs.
Day 4 Spend the day exploring Burra. Visitors can buy the keys to the
town and a self-drive Heritage Passport route provides entry to eight National
Trust properties, including the Monster Mine and Redruth Gaol.
Day 5 Spend the day exploring the countryside and more than 30 wineries
and cellar doors dotting the Clare Valley region. The valley’s
first winery, Sevenhill Cellars, is still run by the Jesuit Brothers. Auburn is
the starting point for the popular Riesling Trail, a 27km cycling and walking
trail along an old rail corridor. A self-guided walking trail highlights the
town’s many historic buildings. Return to Adelaide via Gawler.
