What to expect
You'll start with a guided walk through Hahndorf's historic precinct, stopping at shops selling handmade goods and learning about the settlement's Prussian roots. A sit-down lunch features regional specialities. The afternoon takes you into the Adelaide Hills proper, where your guide points out wallabies, kookaburras and other locals in bush settings. Note that significant time goes to driving between Hahndorf and the hills—factor this into your energy levels. The pace suits all fitness levels, though you'll be on your feet during walking sections.
