This may be one of the most underrated, yet one of Australia’s oldest wine regions and it’s located a mere 70 kilometres from Adelaide in South Australia. Langhorne Creek is on the Fleurieu Peninsula and has a cooler climate than the McLaren Vale and Barossa wine regions due to the cooling breeze that comes from the nearby Lake Alexandrina, which helps to regulate summer heat and winter frosts.

Lakeside Milang ~ South Australia
The town of Milang is around 70 kilometres south of Adelaide on the Fleurieu Peninsula and is known for being a sleepy town on the shore of Lake Alexandrina, having a collection of historic colourful shacks, plenty of pelicans and birdlife, and a boat ramp for fishing or taking part in water sports on the lake. The great thing about it too, is it’s only a hop skip and jump from the Langhorne Creek and Currency Creek wine regions.
Up the Creek without a Paddle…thank goodness for a 4wd
It’s the weekend let’s get out of here. Any chance for a quick getaway from the everyday and we’ll take it. It doesn’t have to take a huge amount of planning and with the caravan always stocked with the basics, it’s just a matter of throwing in warm clothes and some food from home and we are off.
Last weekend saw us venturing less than 50 kilometres from home but to a completely different landscape and feel.
