Spending an hour, afternoon, day, an evening or a weekend with your loved one, always makes you happy, but when you’re looking to add a little romance consider a trip to Hahndorf and the Adelaide Hills.

It doesn’t matter what time of year, Hahndorf is beautiful.

Summer sunsets and balmy nights, dining alfresco and enjoying shopping under the shade of the lush canopy of trees lining Main Street.

Awash with colour, it’s hard to miss the fiery red, bright orange and gold foliage as you arrive into Hahndorf in Autumn. As the cooler nights set in, the trees of South Australia’s historic German town come to life. There’s no doubt about it, the deciduous trees lining the popular historic Hahndorf Main Street over the autumn months are breathtaking.

In spring the Hills are a colourful mix of native wattle and wildflowers and English country gardens separated by lush green rolling paddocks makes for a beautiful experience.

For many, winter in the Adelaide Hills is their favourite time of year. Roaring log fires, delicious local red wine, hearty comfort food, woollen jumpers, beanies and scarves, sleep-ins to the soothing sound of rain, and green rolling hills.

Whatever the season visit Hahndorf and explore the historic village, indulge in the finest of regional food and wine, and visitor experiences.

Here are a few romantic experiences we recommend:

Food & Wine Experiences

For those who enjoy sharing food check out Udder Delights cheese fondue, perfect for two.

Chocolate and wine are a match made in heaven and at Hahndorf Hill Winery you can indulge and tantaliser tastebuds with their chocolate and wine pairing experience, ChocoVino.

Breakfast for two never looked so delicious… The Haus Restaurant has a Pancake Platter! Haus pancakes [5] with Adelaide Hills fresh berries, banana, Chantilly cream, maple syrup, chocolate dipping sauce, mixed berry compote and Hahndorf double-smoked bacon. Or book a long lunch, dinner for two or cocktails on the terrace.

Visit The Lane Vineyard for The Gathering Experience, where you will take a seat and enjoy a heightened discovery of their flagship Occasion and Heritage wines thoughtfully complemented by creations from the chef.

Welcomed by the Moody family, we have the sneaking suspicion you’ll love it at Somerled Cellar Bar. Late opening til 7:30pm. A long convivial marble bar, a roaring fireplace in winter and leafy courtyards in summer.

If Gin will get you in the spirit book a tour of the distillery room at  Ambleside Distillery where one of the Distillers will guide you. See the copper still ‘Doug’ followed by a Tasting Flight in the Tasting Bar.
