MAKE SOME TIME TO...
Hire a bike
The Barossa is renowned for beautiful scenery and one of the best ways to explore it is by bike. Hire your wheels from Barossa Bike Hire in Nuriootpa, 500 metres from the start of the Nuriootpa-to-Angaston leg of the 40-kilometre Barossa Trail. An easy seven-kilometre ride, this section passes lush vineyards, pastures and native pine-tree groves.
Take a helicopter ride
This experience gets top marks for genuine thrills as you’re strapped into a helicopter while soaring high above undulating hills, cruising over local landmarks and gazing at the stunning patchwork of vines below. Barossa Helicopters operates scenic flights that let you see the region from a unique perspective. When you’ve finished your airborne adventure, it seems only right to toast the exhilarating experience with a glass of Chris Ringland Sealed Shiraz.
Visit the sculpture park
Spend an afternoon among the fascinating artworks at the Barossa Sculpture Park, located at Mengler’s Hill Lookout just outside Tanunda. Pack a picnic spread and spend a few hours taking in views of the valley.
