McLaren Vale Self-Guided Tour
McLaren Vale Self-Guided Tour
Stay tuned for the 2025 route!
We’ve done the work for you and plotted a self-guided tour of SALA exhibitions from through the acclaimed wine region of McLaren Vale. Start with a breakfast and a coffee at Hey Juj before embarking on a day of art, wine and food.
The Kaurna People are the traditional owners of the land in what is now known as the City of Onkaparinga, and we acknowledge and respect their continuing connection to the land and waters.
