The Barossa offers everything you'd expect from one of Australia's most famous wine regions. On your Barossa holiday, you can encounter winemakers waiting to share their secrets at the cellar door; landscapes etched with manicured vineyards; passionate food producers proffering their wares at country markets; and grand chateaux surrounded by ornate gardens. And it's all just an hour from Adelaide.
The Barossa owes much of its appeal to the European peasant farmers and English free settlers who made the place home from the 1850s. You'll get a taste of their rich cultural legacy in superb Barossa specialty foods, dozens of festivals and events, historic architecture and inspiring arts and antique galleries.
Wake up in the Barossa Valley after spending the night in a restored settler's cottage, a resort suite, a luxurious country house or a shady caravan park - the Barossa offers a wealth of accommodation options. Sample German wursts and cakes in heritage bakeries and butcher stores as you follow the Barossa's Butcher, Baker, Winemaker Trail. And get right into the swing of things at one of the 100 events making up the biennial Barossa Vintage Festival.
Home of Australian Wine:
Drive amongst vines tended by the Barossa's 500 grape growing families (many sixth-generation). Stop at tiny boutique winery or have your photo taken beside the real Jacob's Creek. Visit 60 sensational cellar doors with household names like Peter Lehmann, Henschke, Seppelt, Yaldara and Yalumba.
Barossa Farmers Market:
The Barossa Farmers Market is held every Saturday morning from 7.30am to 11.30am and boasts real food from the homes and farms of the Barossa. Located just behind Vintners Bar and Grill near Angaston, it's a food-only market reflecting the heritage and traditions of the region.
Events Aplenty:
The Barossa has a calendar of events large and small. The biennial vintage festival celebrates the harvest in every town, Barossa under the Stars features a top international performer (past stars include Rod Stewart and Elton John) and the Barossa Gourmet Weekend unites cooks, chefs and restaurants with wineries to present the best of each.
