What is the best time to visit Coonawarra?

A scenic view of Coonawarra

The best time to visit Coonawarra is in spring and summer when wildflowers speckle the countryside, and the vines are in full bloom. You can also time your arrival for the month-long Cabernet Festival in October, or combine a summer visit with a road trip along the coast. Don’t worry about missing out if you visit out of season—the town also hosts a winter wine festival in July.

Hipcamp has the perfect site to match your camping style.
