Autumn is one of the most beautiful seasons to visit Adelaide Botanic Garden. The colors of the leaves change, the air gets a bit crisp, and the garden is full of life.
Whether you are a local, or just visiting, there are plenty of fun activities to do at the Adelaide Botanic Garden during this season and we've narrowed them down to the top five.
The Adelaide Botanic Garden is the perfect place to take a leisurely walk during autumn. The garden is bursting with colors, and the leaves crunch beneath your feet as you stroll through the garden.
The best part? There are plenty of paths to choose from, so you can take a different route each time you visit. You can even bring a picnic and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
The Bicentennial Conservatory is a must-visit and home to a wide range of plant species, including tropical rainforest plants, not to mention it's the perfect place to escape the chilly weather outside.
