Natural Attractions

Kaiserstuhl Conservation Park

Tanunda

There are two walking trails within this park which pass through a variety of landscapes including creeks, rocky outcrops, areas of low forest, scrub and open grassland. The park has panoramic views across the ranges to the Barossa Valley. The Wallowa Hike offers a comprehensive look at the park's main features, including a scenic lookout and rock formations such as Horse Head Rock. Weathering and erosion have produced this rock formation which, as the name suggests, resembles a horse’s head. Capped Rock, a horizontal rock slab perched on a vertical outcrop, is another interesting feature and provides an exciting photographic challenge. The Stringybark Loop provides a brief look at the park's diverse flora and fauna.

Barossa Valley Cheese Company

Angaston

The Barossa Valley Cheese Company: the winemaker's cheese. You'll find plenty of winemakers in the Barossa. But what makes Victoria McClurg different is she no longer makes wine; she makes cheese. Accordingly, it's not just any cheese: these are rare, authentically traditional varieties. All handmade with a winemaker's sensibilities and artisan skills in their own Cheesecellar in the picturesque town of Angaston using local milk from cows and goats farmed by our neighbours. (They're called the Barossa Valley Cheese Company for a reason.) And being the cheeses made by a winemaker, you know exactly what they'll complement perfectly. The Cheesecellar offers the full range of Barossa Valley Cheese Company cheese products, local gourmet condiments, a range of perfect cheese accompaniments, a viewing window and live stream TV allowing visitors to see the 'whey' the team live, eat, breathe and make their exceptional cheese
