If you plan on renting a bike, make sure the spinway bike hire is not broken. It's also possible to rent ebike from SA-ebike, but you better book it the day prior. Other ways enjoying the wineries around the trail is by foot / by foot + Uber (which was really reasonable price between the wineries). If you walk or bike, a lot of the cellar doors are not directly connected to the Shiraz trail and require riding or walking on the roads. It's not as comfort or safe as riding the Shiraz trail. I still highly recommend going off the trail and visiting them.

Shiraz trail is part of a longer trail called Coast to vine trail. This trail is more suitable for cycling than walking as it is smooth, asphalted and wide enough. It passes through McLaren Vale vineyards. Abundant vine trees, and also lots of olive trees are on the way. Name Shiraz comes from a city in Iran famous for its wine and poets. This marvelous city was home of an astonishing poet named Hafez who his poets are full of metaphors with wine.

Great track between McLaren Vale and Willunga. Amazing views of the foothills along the Fleurieu coast, and local vineyards. There's plenty of rest stops along the way, just make sure you bring water.

A really nice walk along the Shiraz Trail, if your luck is up you might see some sheep . Keep your eyes open. I was there Wednesday 10.03.2021 …

Beautiful trail that shows some of the beautiful Vale views, and leads you around the best wineries.

It's a good walk. No shelter if it starts raining, so either go in good weather or take an umbrella

I'm a local and I can assure visitors to the area that the Shiraz Trail is well worth a visit

Lovely evening walk on a well maintained track. Lots of birds and lovely views.

This is a pretty well maintained trail which is lovely to ride or walk on.

Lovely peaceful trail for cycling or walking between fields of grapevines

A fantastic sealed surface for walking or riding through the vines.

Safe, picturesque and good for cycling and running

Great spot to take to pooch

Great walk
