All about Stirling

Nestled in the Adelaide Hills, the small village of Stirling is most famous for its brilliant sweetgum trees that draw crowds every autumn when their leaves change colours. These trees line Druid Avenue, home to the monthly Stirling Market, as well as Mount Barker Road, whose street is wider than others in the district because it was used for horse-drawn vehicles around the 19th-century. Nearby, you’ll find a whole host of parks and gardens, such as the Mount Lofty Summit, the highest point in the Mount Lofty Ranges, or the Mount Lofty Botanical Gardens, perched on the mountainside.

Be sure to pay a visit to tranquil Woorabinda Lake and its four-kilometre trail that weaves through wetlands fringed with reeds and eucalyptus woodland. The Adelaide Hills is one of Australia’s oldest wine regions, well-regarded for its cool-climate wines like chardonnay and pinot noir. You can sample some of the region’s wines directly from their cellar doors while admiring the beautiful view over the Adelaide Hills.
