Mount Crawford is a locality in the Mount Lofty Ranges of South Australia. It is named after the mountain of the same name in its boundaries, also known as Teetaka.[4]
The locality of Mount Crawford is crossed by Warren Road (route B34 between Williamstown and Birdwood) and edged by Route B35 where it branches from that road towards Mount Pleasant. The space between the two roads is Cromer, but both sides of the Y junction are Mount Crawford.[3] The Warren Conservation Park and south bank of Warren Reservoir are also in Mount Crawford. The South Para River rises in Mount Crawford, then flows along the northern boundary of the locality, through the Warren Reservoir. The Heysen Trail (a long-distance hiking trail) also crosses Mount Crawford.
Mount Crawford is located within the local government areas of the Adelaide Hills Council and the Barossa Council.[1] It is within the boundaries of the Adelaide Hills wine region.[5]
