Angaston combines artisan food with practical ideas for active days. The Barossa Valley Cheese Company makes cheese here from local cow’s and goat’s milk; there is also a junior pump track and trails offering different ways to explore. This mix is useful when planning a trip: you can make culinary discoveries the focus or include physical activity as part of your stay.

Cheese and local produce

The Barossa Valley Cheese Company makes handmade cheese in Angaston from local cow’s and goat’s milk. The production itself is part of the town’s culinary character. If you enjoy discovering local produce when you travel, you’ll find a clear point of interest here: the milk comes from cows and goats in the surrounding area, and the cheese is made by hand.

The Barossa Valley Cheese Company’s Cheesecellar also offers a glimpse into the production process. It has a viewing window and a live stream showing the cheese being made. This lets you focus not only on the finished product, but also on how it is made. Both features make this aspect of cheese production visible in different ways.

The Barossa Farmers' Market offers a different focus. It features fresh, seasonal and artisan food from the Barossa region. Unlike an individual cheese maker, it showcases a selection of local produce. Its seasonal focus is part of its character, as is its artisan production. If you’re planning culinary discoveries, you can include these offerings in your trip as different points of interest.
