The Prettiest Lookouts and Views in the Barossa

Where to stand for the big valley panoramas, from famous hilltops to quiet back-road pull-overs.

Down among the vines the Barossa is lovely; from above it is breathtaking - a quilt of vineyards, gum lines and church spires rolling out to the ranges. These are the best vantage points, and most of them are at their finest in the gold of late afternoon.
