Best Outdoor Activities in Richmond

"Adelaide’s not short on wildlife reserves – there’s Cleland Wildlife Park in the Adelaide Hills, the open-range Monarto Zoo an hour’s drive out of town and the gorgeous Botanic Gardens on the northern edge of the city centre. But the Adelaide Zoo is perhaps the pick of the bunch, housing 2,500 animals across 250 species. The star attractions are a pair of giant pandas called Wang Wang and Fu Ni."

"The second oldest zoo in the country, Adelaide Zoo was opened in 1883 and is home to over 3,000 animals.

Here you'll find Brad Bown and his farmhouse-inspired beers within a small shopping complex. Brad’s point of difference is his love of the unconventional yeast strains and bacteria, often experimenting with the likes of Norwegian yeast kviek, Brettanomyces, lactobacillus and pediococcus."

The latter three are all owned by the same company with the brewery housed inside the bakery."
