Cherry trail

[richjop]

Not sure whether people are aware of this but Adelaide is famous for its cherries that are grown up in the Hills. There is something called the cherry trail that we drove at the weekend that takes you through some pretty spectacular countryside and the cherries themselves were fantastic. We liked the ones from the Torrens Valley Orchard near Gumeracha and then went and fed the animals at the Rocking Horse-a really enjoyable couple of hours and it got the children interested in fruit and where it comes from. Don't expect anything too fancy at the orchards, it literally is just lots of cherries for sale but well worth it!
