The Adelaide Hills stand as one of the earliest settled regions in South Australia by European pioneers. Many of its towns, such as Hahndorf and Lobethal, were established as German settlements, a heritage that endures in their original names and architectural styles. Generations later, descendants of these settlers, along with others of German descent, continue to call this area home. Hahndorf, in particular, beckons exploration with its authentic German cuisine and beverages served at its locally-owned eateries. For Adelaide residents, a leisurely drive through the hills remains a beloved pastime, thanks to its close proximity to the city and surrounding suburbs. ​The Adelaide Hills wine region flourishes with vineyards predominantly cultivating Sauvignon Blanc, closely followed by Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Gris.
