The Hundred of Belvidere is a cadastral unit of hundred located in the north Barossa Valley of South Australia in the County of Light. The lightly-populated localities central to the hundred are St Johns, Moppa, Koonunga, Ebenezer and St Kitts. The more populous towns of Kapunda, Greenock, Nuriootpa, Stockwell and Truro, and the localities of Bagot Well and Fords, also cross the boundaries of the hundred, but the townships are all outside the hundred bounds. The name appears to be derived from the Belvidere Range, spanning from Nain, south-easterly adjacent to the hundred, to Black Springs, further north. The range was named by geologist explorer Johannes Menge in 1841 because of the view it commanded (Latin bellus meaning beautiful and videre meaning sight).
