Crafers

The quaint and charming village of Crafers overlooks the sprawl of Adelaide. Nestled in the hills among Australian and European trees, the leafy green streets are taken over annually by the autumn oranges and reds.

The highest point in Adelaide and its surrounds, aptly named Mount Lofty, is one of the most favoured tourist attractions in the area. Every year, 750,000 people commit to the pilgrimage to the top of this mountain which stands at 710 metres above sea level. The many trails through native bushland and up through the gullies are an experience in their own right and cater for all levels of hikers and cyclists. The panoramic views from the top of Mount Lofty are nothing short of majestic, especially at sunrise or sunset and it's easy to see why this has become a great spot for individuals looking to exercise and explore.

Visit the nearby Cleland Wildlife Conservation Park where you can get up close and personal with Australia's native fauna species in their natural habitats. Learn all about some of the rarest marsupials, mammals, reptile and bird species in the world.
