Mount Barker is a town in South Australia. Located
approximately 33 kilometres (21 miles) from the
Adelaide city centre, it is home to 14,452 residents.
It is the seat of the District Council of Mount
Barker, the largest town in the Adelaide Hills, and
one of the fastest growing areas in the state.

Mount Barker lies at the base of a local
eponymous peak called the Mount Barker summit.
It is 50 kilometres from the Murray River. Mount
Barker was traditionally a farming area, and many
of the lots just outside the town area are farming
lots, although some of them have been replaced
with new subdivisions in recent times.
