It's a great place for adventure and exploration and you can take it relaxed or intense. Amble around or hit biking and hiking trails hard or at an easy pace. Adelaide's highest peak, Mount Lofty is also in the Adelaide Hills region and affords unsurpassed views across the city and its coastal suburbs. A kaleidoscope of dazzling natural wonder awaits at Innes National Park, on the western tip of the Yorke Peninsula. Secluded white sand beaches, wild vertiginous cliffs and offshore islands heralded by lighthouses are the hallmark of a stretch also known evocatively as the Shipwreck Coast.

In fact, 22 ships met their fate in the area, making it a fine scuba diving destination and the waters teem with marine life.

The Southern Spencer Gulf Marine Park, just off the coast, is a sanctuary for a rich diversity of creatures and plants. Inland, the region bursts with spring wildflower colour and more than species of native birds call it home.

You might encounter ospreys, boobook owls, colourful cockatoos and nesting water birds, including beautiful sea eagles in the cliffs. That's not to mention a who's who of South Australian native mammals.

Adelaide Hills

Archeologists have discovered thousand years of fossils due to animals falling into the caves. The fossil records span multiple ice ages and the arrival of humans in the region and include some spectacular megafauna specimens. While the majority is closely guarded for science, four of 28 caves are open to the public and there's a range of self-guided, guided and adventure caving tours available.

These too, run the gamut from easy strolls to serious caving. Kids will love the Wonambi Fossil Centre and its displays and life-size megafauna replicas. Flinders Chase National Park is the biggest — and one of Australia's largest — and warrants days to explore.
