Barossa Valley has garnered international attention for being one of Australia’s best wine producing regions. The area was originally settled by Germans, and their influence can be seen in the architecture of older buildings as well as in the cuisine. Barossa Valley is one of the most easily accessible wine regions in Australia. The town is about an hour from
Adelaide’s airport, and the trip their via road makes for a scenic drive.
An extensive list of wineries are found throughout Barossa Valley. Hopping from one winery to another is an excellent way to spend time here, sampling the various flavors and enjoying the cuisine offered by some of the wineries. If you need to take them all in at once,
Menglers Hill Lookout provides a stunning view of the entire Valley – a view said to be worth it even in winter rain. A number of events are held in Barossa Valley throughout the year, including the summer concert of Barossa Under the Stars and the professional cycling racing during the Tour Down Under. The
Whispering Wall that forms the dam of the Barossa Valley reservoir is certainly a unique experience, allowing visitors to whisper against one end of the dam and be heard perfectly at the other end which is 144 meters away.
