The Peramangk people inhabited this area long before Hahndorf became the first settlement in Australia planned specifically for non-British immigrants, and you can visit galleries and museums featuring First Nations artwork and history.

The Cedars, the former home and studio of renowned landscape artist Sir Hans Heysen is just a few minutes out of town. Hahndorf Academy in Hahndorf's main street is a hub of creativity and heritage, with exhibitions, classes and an outstanding shop selling the work of local artists and designers.

Don't miss artisan food producers such as wine producers Somerled, Landhaus, La Prova, Sidewood, and a little further afield The Lane Vineyard and Hahndorf Hill Winery. Visit Ambleside Distillers for handcrafted gin and masterclasses.

Families love the Fairy Garden, Mini Golf, Hahndorf Farm Barn and picking strawberries at Beerenberg Farm.

Hahndorf also offers a great range of accommodation, including luxury villas, BnBs, motels, and the Discovery Parks - Hahndorf resort.
