You are here: Home VISIT THE LIGHT REGION ........KAPUNDA, THE GATEWAY
TO BOTH THE BAROSSA AND CLARE VALLEY WINE REGIONS
Seppeltsfield winery has been compared to a pilgrimage for those
who
enjoy wine. It is unrivalled as a showplace for the wine industry in
Australia. Tour the winery and learn about its history, winemaking and
its wines. Along the wine trail there are plenty of boutique wineries
to
discover and Kapunda Distillery's unique Portuguese style ports are not
to be missed.
If you haven't already heard of the town of Freeling I'll bet you've heard of a place called "Gungellan". Yes, the region is the heart of filming for the popular TV series "McLeods Daughters". Cruise the area... You may be lucky enough to stumble across a film shoot yourself! Just 10 minutes north of Freeling is Kapunda, often referred to by visitors as 'one of the state's best kept secrets'. Kapunda is
just an hour's drive from Adelaide's CBD. What a rich history this
small town has. Once the largest town outside of Adelaide, its grand stone buildings are a reflection of a
thriving and prosperous era when Australia's first commercial copper
mine was in production here. History, leisure and fine art. You'll find
plenty to keep you busy here! And, just a 10 minute drive south of Kapunda and you can be enjoying the tastes of the famous Barossa Valley or 20 minutes to the north indulge yourself in the premium wine growing Clare Valley. |
