Session 22 - The Adelaide Hills

Session 22 sees Swirl, Sniff, Spit take to the hills. The Adelaide Hills region is one of Australia's largest geographically, spreading in a narrow band to the East of Adelaide in the Mount Lofty ranges.

Look at the region on a map and you'll see it extends northward, bordering the Eden Valley, and to the South running parallel to McLaren Vale.

Our host for this session is Bec Hardy from K1 by Geoff Hardy in the southern Adelaide Hills.
