Even if you haven’t booked a show there is often a great art exhibition in the gallery and there are many bars on the linking walkway overlooking our “small” but important Torrens river.

A must if you are a football or cricket enthusiast. The oval conducts rooftop climbs at a price of course. Get there early to get a seat if you have general admission . Best to take a freebie bus every 15 minutes if you are heading off to the football just show your pass.

A great hiking trail which starts at Waterfall Gully carpark to the top of Mount Lofty.Steep in the last section but worth the views. It can get busy on the weekends.This trail crosses over with many other walking trails that criss cross the Adelaide Hills.Another favourite for when you want the coolness of a gully is Chambers Gully accessed also from Waterfall Gully road. If you have a car this hike is only a few minutes away.
