Clare Valley

Escape to the charmingly secluded Clare Valley and disappear into a weekend of intimate discovery. Behind every corner, there is a new discovery.

The Clare Valley is a place to relax, unwind and soak up the good life. Wind your way through a cluster of villages and wineries, nestled in a picturesque valley. Marvel at the patchwork of pristine farmland, admire the elegant rows of vines and be inspired by the natural beauty of the region. Just an hour and a half from Adelaide, the secluded Clare Valley is an enchanting journey. The region is

all about experiencing. You can cycle the famed ‘Riesling Trail’, a 32km corridor, linking quaint towns, restaurants and wineries; or take a step back in time with a trip to Burra, a township famed for its mining heritage.

Father's Day is this weekend (that's September 6th for those who need a reminder 😉)

Why not treat the whole family to a getaway in the Clare Valley? Good food, plenty of activities and time together with Dad and the kids. That's a weekend well spent.

See clarevalley.com for ideas and accommodation options.

It’s that time of year again – when the Clare Valley turns golden. 💛

Rolling hills of canola in full bloom make spring drives through the region a visual feast. Bright yellow as far as the eye can see, set against big skies and vineyard greens – it’s a photographer’s dream.

If you're visiting this month, keep your camera handy and take the scenic route between towns like Watervale, Auburn and Leasingham.

Please note that canola fields are private property and shouldn't be entered. Instead, find a safe place to pull over and admire from the roadside.

Spring is on its way 🌸 The vines are waking up, the days are getting longer, and wildflowers are starting to bloom. Now’s the time to plan your next visit and breathe it all in.

The blossom is out along the Clare Valley roadsides 🌸

Late winter into spring is one of the most underrated times to visit the Clare Valley region. The roads are lined with blossom, the cellar doors are open, and you'll have them mostly to yourself before the spring crowds arrive.

Pack a long lunch, take the scenic route, and make a day of it. Ninety minutes from Adelaide and worth every one.
