Adelaide to Clare road trip: Horrocks Highway

The drive to Clare from Adelaide keeps going along the Horrocks Highway, through Tarlee. The wineries start popping up soon afterwards, but there are several around Auburn. You’ll also find the Bonina Olive Grove here.

On the way from Auburn into Clare, there are a couple more decent detour options. To the east, you can visit Martindale Hall and the Mintaro Maze. To the west, there’s the Spring Gully Conservation Park near Pentwortham.
