In the heart of South Australia, nestled amidst rolling hills and vineyards, lies the charming town of Kapunda. But Kapunda holds a secret, a whimsical wonder that beckons curious hearts – the Kapunda Cornish Piskies!
These aren’t your ordinary piskies. Descended from Cornish folklore brought by early miners, these little sprites are known for their sunny dispositions and playful tricks. They flit between the old stone buildings, hiding amongst the vibrant blooms and whispering secrets to the rustling leaves.

Keep your eyes peeled especially around the Historic Kapunda Mine Site! The piskies are known to have a particular fondness for the weathered machinery and crumbling tunnels, remnants of a bygone era.
