    MurrayRiverBarrages@Goolwa

    Took a day tour with Adelaide Sightseeing Tours for A$48 (circa 2001) to explore the Fleurieu Peninsula. The last 2 stops of the day. The penultimate stop was at Goolwa where we got to see the Murray River barrages complete with a lock for navigation. The barrages form a man-made barrier between the fresh waters of the Murray River and the salt water of the Coorong National Park. For most of the folks in the coach, it was "ah huh....and??" and for some, just "????". It just wasn't the same when there were no mysterious creatures to see or any shopping to be done. The last stop was the Scottish town of Strathalbyn, very picturesque, very park-like, along the banks of the Angas River. Had a 15 minutes chance to stretch out my legs, do a stroll through the town, catch some photos and for my lady friends, well, a last chance to do some shopping before we hit back the City.

    Took a day tour with Adelaide Sightseeing Tours for A$48 (circa 2001) to explore the Fleurieu Peninsula. Folks who love photography would like the next vantage stop for panoramic shots of Horseshoe Bay, Rosetta Heads and Encounter Bay, all places steeped in whaling history. At this stage, Victor Harbour is very close by.

    Hire a car for a day, grap a map of the Adelaide hills and start driving. I would recommend starting at Gumeracha where you will see the Giant Rocking Horse, and travelling throught Birdwood where there is a motor museum for enthusiasts. Travel through towns such as Lobethal, which at Christmas becomes alive with christmas lights and end up a Hahndof, a quaint German town with lots of interesting shops and restaurants.

    Travel from Goolwa to Victor Harbor and back by a real live steam train called The Cockle train or ride up the Coorong in a boat and see places where the Aboriginals once lived.

  • Directions: Goolwa is 80 Km south of Adelaide in South Australia. Part of the Fleurieu region making up Strathalbyn Goolwa Victor Harbor and Cape Jervis towns and many more in between.

    One of the nicest activities is a ride on the 'Steam Ranger', through the Adelaide Hills. The scenery is spectacular, ideal for some wonderful photography.

    If you can afford a day's car rental, try taking out you breath with scenic beauty of the hills. Taking the Princess Freeway, explore the magic of the hills with its hiden treasures of Handorf, Mt. Lofty, Stirling, Picadilly, Strathalbyn, The Crafers and many more. Believe me you will be tempted to keep the car for a second day as you won't be able to see all in single day. Mesmerise yourself with the great food in while sucking in the fresh air and beauty

    Beautiful fresh berries, you should see the size of the strawberries - and they are sweeter than any I've tasted before. Between 1 November and 30 April, you can pick your own fresh berries, however there are roadside sales of berries and jams from 9am to dusk. Open 7 days a week, you'd be mad not to pick up a punnet or two.
