Family Friendly things to do this Autumn around Adelaide
Autumn is the ideal time to get outdoors as a family and enjoy everything Adelaide has to offer during this beautiful time of year. The sunny yet cooler days are perfect for visiting a wildlife park or reservoir, explore a new adventure park or nature playground, travel to the hills or down to the coast, or just get outside and enjoy the changing colours of the leaves.
We’ve made a helpful list below and included some of our favourite Autumn events around Adelaide, plus we’ve added a few different ideas for things to do and places to go with your kids.
