Piccadilly is a small and charming town located in the beautiful Adelaide Hills of South Australia, Australia. It's known for its lovely scenery and fresh produce. In 2006, about 509 people lived in Piccadilly.

For many years, the Piccadilly Valley was a busy place for 'market gardening'. This means people grew fresh fruits and vegetables to sell in Adelaide and even to other countries. Today, a big part of the valley is used to grow special types of grapes. These grapes are perfect for making 'cool climate' wines.

Piccadilly is also home to the Woodhouse Scout Centre. This centre is a popular spot for scout jamborees, which are big gatherings for scouts. It also hosts school camps and offers many fun outdoor activities for young people.
