Admire the panoramic views from Menglers Hill Lookout, with fantastic photographic opportunities looking out onto the Barossa Valley before a visit to the charming stone brick town of Angaston. You'll even get the chance to sample some of the renowned range of dried fruits.

Lunch today is at the famous Peter Lehmann winery, one of the beautiful wineries within the Barossa Valley. Enjoy sumptuous local produce in the magnificent surrounds.

The afternoon will then be spent among the vineyards and wineries which make this area so popular and famous around the world.
