Wotton Park / Stirling Gardens
Stirling's avenue of autumn colour
The leafy public gardens and exotic plantings around Stirling, celebrated for their spectacular autumn colour each April and May.
Stirling is the Hills' autumn-colour capital, and its public gardens and tree-lined streets are the reason. Generations of English-style plantings - oaks, maples, liquidambars and elms - turn the village red and gold for a few weeks each April and May, drawing photographers from across Adelaide.
It's free, easy and endlessly photogenic: park the car, walk the streets and gardens, and finish with coffee on the main street. Peak colour is short and weather-dependent, so time your visit for mid-to-late autumn.
