With its clean fresh air and far-reaching views and only a 20 minute drive from Adelaide city, Hahndorf is Australia’s oldest surviving German settlement attracting over 800,00 tourists each year. Here you’ll find several boutique cellar doors and trendy eateries serving the freshest and best local produce.
Along with its breathtaking landscapes, fascinating culture and rich heritage, Hahndorf is a paradise for locally produced food and wine.
Founded by Prussian immigrants in 1838, the strong German flavour in Hahndorf can be seen in the number of butchers, bakeries and gourmet stores that line the bustling main street.
When you decide to begin your stroll down Hahndorf ’s main street, make sure you do it on an empty stomach!
First port of call is to taste the local cheeses at Udder Delights’ Cheese Cellar. This quaint shop is prominently located
with a large yellow cow displayed near the entrance.
Since opening in 1999, the cellar has earned a fine reputation for their handcrafted goat and cow milk cheeses. Try the creamy and delicious brie or blue vein and you could end up buying a huge half wheel for as little as $10. You can learn more by booking into a free cheese tasting class.
