Geocache Description:


Charleston is a small town in the Adelaide Hills.

It is situated on the Onkaparinga Valley Road between Woodside and Mount Torrens, on the main route from the Adelaide Hills to the Barossa Valley, and 3 km south-east of Lobethal.

Charleston is very close to the source of the River Onkaparinga and the town was once served by a railway line which ran from Balhannah towards Mount Pleasant. The line was closed in 1963 and removed shortly after. The former rail corridor is now the Amy Gillett Bikeway.

The Charleston Hotel is a charming country pub, nestled in the Hills, only 30 minutes from the Toll Gate or Tea Tree Plaza.

Their beautiful beer garden is ideal on hot summer days and they have open fires roaring in winter.

The hotel serves lunch and dinner 7 days, with all day dining on weekends and public holidays.

You are invited to attend and experience their delicious pub food, a good selection of Adelaide Hills wines, beers, and ciders plus country hospitality.

Charleston Menu for those who may like to indulge in some good ol' country fare!

Note:

All are welcome. You can stay the entire time, or just pop in for a minute....and of course there are a few caches located nearby for those who haven't found them already.
