The parabolic dam wall of the Barossa reservoir will reflect your voice to the other side, allowing you 'whisper' to someone on the other end.

This wall and reservoir is over 150 years' old and is situated at Whispering wall road Williamston. Barossa SA 5351 If you whisper from one side of the dam wall, a person standing at the opposite end can hear you as if they are right beside you. 5 stars from most visitors.

A truly unique experience. Talk to each other across the reservoir wall as if they are standing next to you. Children love it!

Built between 1899 and 1903 the Whispering Wall is part of the dam wall located in the Barossa Reservoir Reserve and is known for its unique acoustic effects. Words whispered at one side can be clearly heard at the other, more than 100 metres away. Barossa Reservoir Reserve is a popular tourist destination north of Adelaide, and just an hour’s drive from the city centre. The reservoir is close to Williamstown and Gawler, just south of the Barossa Valley, making it a great day trip from Adelaide. Pack a picnic and think of a secret to whisper! Free car parking and toilet facilities are also available. Open 8.30am - 5pm (standard time), 8.30am - 8pm (daylight saving time). Closed on Total Fire Ban Days and for operational activity (gates will be closed).
