Mt Lofty Botanic Gardens
Mount Lofty Botanic Garden is a spectacular hills garden located over 100 hectares on the eastern slopes of Mount Lofty. In this cool, temperate garden you can discover plants from South America, China, East Africa, New Zealand, South East Asia and North America, as well as the native flora that dominated the Mount Lofty Ranges prior to European settlement.
Take a journey through the garden on one of the many walking trails and lose yourself in the beauty and serenity of nature. You can even walk a part of the iconic Heysen Trail with one of the trail’s oldest sections passing through Mount Lofty Botanic Garden.
Entry is free. For further visitor information including opening times, parking and walking trails click here.
