@Lenswood Apple Picking 

Pick Your Own Apples in the Adelaide Hills This Autumn At Lenswood in the Adelaide Hills.

If you’re searching for things to do in the Adelaide Hills this autumn, apple picking at Lenswood is a must. This popular family-friendly activity offers more than just fruit picking, with kids’ games, a giant Thomas the Tank Engine, tractors to climb and play on, a giant sandpit and delicious apple pies from the Farm Cafe. 

Set among the beautiful apple orchards, there’s plenty of space for kids to run around while parents soak up the fresh country air. With easy parking, great food options, and a relaxed farm atmosphere, it’s an easy, fun day out for families near Adelaide. It’s a great way 

Enjoy a beautiful day out with the kids and start a memorable family Autumn tradition. Teach the kids about where their food comes from and taste the difference. Plus, apple picking is great for little kids because the apples are grown about 30cm off the ground and up so everyone can reach!

The town of Lenswood is well known around the world for producing some of Australia’s best apples and cherries and At Lenswood apples are not the apples you find in the supermarket – you are missing out if you’ve never eaten an apple straight off the tree whilst walking through an orchard! You will find eight different varieties available at different times throughout the season (some crossing over) – Pink Lady, Rosy Glow, Red Delicious, Gala, Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, Fuji and Sundowners.
