About Kenton Valley
Kenton Valley is a quiet rural locality in the Adelaide Hills, nestled in a valley between the towns of Gumeracha and Lobethal, approximately 40 kilometres east of Adelaide. The locality falls within the Adelaide Hills Council local government area and covers around 21.5 square kilometres of undulating hills terrain. With a population of 262 residents across 94 dwellings, it is a small, semi-rural community that retains a distinctly pastoral character shaped by the surrounding hill country.
The valley is home to cherry and strawberry farms that take advantage of the fertile Adelaide Hills soils, alongside the Kenton Valley Golf Course which draws visitors from across the region. The surrounding area is popular with cyclists and bushwalkers who enjoy the scenic roads and trails of the Adelaide Hills. Day-to-day services are available in nearby Gumeracha and Lobethal, while the broader range of amenities in the Adelaide Hills townships and Adelaide's eastern suburbs is within easy reach.
Kenton Valley falls under postcode 5233 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Schubert electorate.
