The Spirited Sip & Cycle: For Gin-Lover’s in McLaren Vale

For gin lovers looking to explore McLaren Vale on two wheels, our Spirited Sip & Cycle route offers a refreshing blend of award-winning distilleries, laid-back vibes, and scenic eBike cruising. This relaxed ride is perfect for friendship groups and day-trippers who want to add a splash of flavour to their outdoor adventure.

Start your ride with a burst of botanicals at Never Never Distilling Co., a crowd favourite known for its bold gins and stunning views. Co-located with Chalk Hill Wines, this stylish hilltop destination offers the perfect first stop. The bike-friendly lower driveway allows you to skip the steep car route.

Ready for a delicious lunch complimented by award winning brandy? Angove’s Restaurant and Cellar Door is the perfect answer! If you’re up for a hill climb after lunch, ride up to McLaren Vale Distillery.

Prefer cruising along the Flat to Vale Trail? No problem- half way along you’ll find Neat Spirits, located with Foggo Road Wines—a relaxed space for those curious about small-batch innovation. A short ride beyond the end of the trail, Beresford’s tasting pavilion or Vale Restaurant offer gin flights, tequila and much more.

While eBikes make it easy to explore more, spirits can sneak up on you—we suggest choosing one or two standout venues to savour. Many distilleries serve food, making it easy to extend your stay and relax between rides.

For those returning to the McLaren Vale Visitor Centre, Ginny Pig Distillery offers a perfect wind-down moment with premium gin.

Whether you’re sipping citrus-forward cocktails or soaking up the region’s coastal beauty, you can enjoy the ultimate McLaren Vale gin experience—with a little pedal-powered fun along the way.
